Hello,
For some reason, wehn I went to playu Diablo today it would crash immediately after I hit “Play” from the bnet launcher. I did some digging on the internet and there were no answers from blizzard and nothing really from the community that fixed the issue. I checked my event viewer and this showed up:
Faulting application name: Diablo IV.exe, version: 2.1.0.61504, time stamp: 0x678ec02d
Faulting module name: sl.pcl.dll, version: 2.4.10.0, time stamp: 0x6647e70d
Exception code: 0xc0000409

Faulting package-relative application ID:
So I looked in to other issues with the “sl.pcl.dll” file causing issues, turns out a few other games have a similar issue and the fix was changing " sl.pcl.dll" to " sl.pcl.dll_backup". I figured I’d try, and so I renamed it and the game started immediately.
edit: you then have to go in to the options once the game launches and set “resolution scaling” to “None” to get everything to load.
Hope this helps someone out there.
