Game crashing upon loading if after Queue

[SmokeyAmethyst]

Then I needed to do a complete reinstall (just moving the files over didn't work, guess it was indeed a file corruption and not just a file pathing issue)

Forgive me, I'm computer dumb: So was the issue the fact that it was on an external? Or the fact that it needed to be clean re-installed? I've been purging and barely have enough space for the game on my C drive.

The workaround is a bigger HDD/SSD.

My SSD has plenty of space, so I don't think space is the issue?

We tried everything, deleting the settings file, deleting all the game files, and re-installing it to disable all other programs running at the same time, re-installing the game, repairing the game, and still couldn't join any queue, as soon as we queue the game crashes and says an error has occurred. We are lost now as this is happening to one of our static members and we can't raid together any longer since the new patch.

Both in my case. I tried to just move the files over from the external to my internal drive initially and I still had the same issue. So I did a complete reinstall on my internal C drive too (deleted the files on my internal drive and re-downloaded the installer online). After that, it worked. You could try to reinstall the game on your external drive. But I didn't try it so no idea if it'd work or not. Later on in like a few patches, I might try to move the game back to my external drive and see if it's stable (because I also have way more space on my ssd than my C drive lol)
