Postup řešení

  1. 1 Restart Moonlight Game Streaming completely. Close it, open Task Manager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc), find any remaining Moonlight Game Streaming processes, right-click → End Task. Background processes from previous sessions are the most common cause of startup crashes.
  2. 2 Update Moonlight Game Streaming to the latest version. Open the app, go to Help → Check for Updates (or download the latest installer from the official website). Updates fix known bugs and compatibility issues.
  3. 3 Reset Moonlight Game Streaming settings. Navigate to %APPDATA%\MoonlightGameStreaming and rename the settings folder to add '.old'. This forces Moonlight Game Streaming to create fresh settings — corrupted config files cause crashes.
  4. 4 Run Moonlight Game Streaming as Administrator. Right-click the shortcut → Properties → Compatibility → check 'Run as Administrator'. Some features of Moonlight Game Streaming require elevated permissions.
  5. 5 Check if Moonlight Game Streaming conflicts with your antivirus. Temporarily disable real-time protection and test. Add Moonlight Game Streaming installation folder to antivirus exclusions.
  6. 6 Clear Moonlight Game Streaming cache. Navigate to %LOCALAPPDATA%\MoonlightGameStreaming\Cache and delete all files. Corrupted cache data causes rendering and processing errors.
  7. 7 Repair Moonlight Game Streaming installation. Windows Settings → Apps → Moonlight Game Streaming → Modify → Repair. This replaces damaged program files while preserving your data.
  8. 8 If Moonlight Game Streaming still won't work: uninstall from Settings → Apps, restart, reinstall from official website. A clean install is the nuclear option but fixes almost everything.
