Solved [HELP] Crash at launch

[Archer]

I just bought the game a few hours ago but when I try to launch it, it shows me a white screen for 2 seconds and then closes the game.
I've tried everything,
-verifying games files
-Deleting startup_preferences
-Repairing XNA 4.0
-Reinstalling the game
Etc.
But it still doesn't start.

Which OS are you playing on? Are you playing with any mods or have you used mods previously?

Windows. No, this is my first time purchasing the game.

Well it sounds like you've tried most of the recommended steps already, but there are a few others you could try, such as making sure you have speakers or headphones connected, and reinstalling the .NET Framework: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Player_Guide/Troubleshooting#Game_doesn.27t_launch

The last thing to try if you've gone through everything there already would be try installing SMAPI: https://stardewvalleywiki.com/Modding:Installing_SMAPI_on_Windows

Even if you try installing SMAPI? Once you've installed SMAPI, can you share an error log? See https://smapi.io/log for instructions.

Couldn't find a file called "ErrorLogs" Even when I copy and paste "%appdata%\StardewValley\ErrorLogs" in run.

But whenever i try to launch the game this show's up for a few seconds and then the game stops running.

I do understand the crash issue you're describing. I just want to be sure though, have you tried installing SMAPI and running the game through that? The error log I'm referring would appear after you install SMAPI.

I'm glad that's working! There should be a section on that page explaining how to launch the game with SMAPI through Steam. You may need to walk through the install process of SMAPI again to get it set up, but once you do you'll be able to launch Stardew on Steam and have it launch through SMAPI.
(See https://stardewcommunitywiki.com/Mo...dows#Launch_SMAPI_through_Steam_or_GOG_Galaxy for a link that will work right now).
