I'm playing the game through steam and windows 10, and when I try to start a new game right after the introduction the game closes without any kind of error, I don't use mods, and I don't even have a crash file, I just use steam and the game. I managed to start a save through smapi but I can't use the base game

here is the log trough the working smapi file


here is the log of the crashing insue

sorry for bad english, im brazilian and dont speak so well

To recap some things that were done on/before Discord (please correct me if I'm wrong!)...
  • verified file integrity
  • reinstalled game
  • playing in English
  • no tweak/overclock software etc running (not sure if still an issue post update 🤔 )
  • no vanilla crash log?
  • installed SMAPI for log and there isn't much there, but is playable
It's worth checking through the troubleshooting steps here even though your crash doesn't match exactly, but it was bouncing around a bit in chat so here seemed best :)

Hi Elly could you send me your save file? (%appdata%/StardewValley/Saves and look for your farm name, zip the whole folder and attach here)

did you unzip Alice_222733517 to %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves ?

You should end up with a folder called Alice_222733517 in the %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves folder.
It works for me

okay, so the issue has something to do with your ability to save. For some reason your computer is not letting you write files to %appdata%/StardewValley/Saves. Please make sure you have full write permissions for that folder, and that you have space on your hard drive, or any other possible conflicting hardware or software issues

this is a longshot, but how about if you go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stardew Valley and run Stardew Valley.exe as administrator (right click it > run as administrator)?

I was having the exact same problem, but I use a mac. There isn't a "Run as Administrator" option when you right click on a mac, so instead I had to go into the terminal and type
"sudo ~/Library/Application\ Support/Steam/steamapps/common/Stardew\ Valley/Contents/MacOS/StardewValley" . Same principle, different execution. |||| EDIT: Seems like every time you want to create a new save file you will have to sudo/run the program as an admin :/. At least I can make a new game now. Thank you for the solution ConcernedApe!
