Tequilla crashing automaticallt

[GalenaWainwright]

I updated my computer recently and now everytime I load Tequilla, it immediately crashes and I cant do anything about it..i really loved playing but now I cant anymore

 

anyway to solve this issue

[WanderingAries]

Try revalidating the files in the Tequila options.

[VegasVampire]

How do you revalidate the file? It doesn't let me do that when I open tequila.exe.

First thing I'd check is if your Anti-Virus is blocking the opening of Tequila.  Check your AV program to see if it catches Tequila.exe as a 'false positive'.

 

(Since there's 100's of AV apps out there... 1,000 counting the less-than-reputable ones, we don't have specific instructions.  Someone using the same AV can chime in if you need step-by-step assistance.)

Options -> Revalidate

 

Oh wait, you're saying it's crashing Tequila when IT opens, not the game. Yeah, let us know what your AV is.

The same thing is now happening to me. I have Kaspersky AV, but have Tequila and City of Heroes.exe both whitelisted in its applications list.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Similar happens to me i got tequila all the city of heroes and homecoming exes whitelisted  but tequila freezes on startup wont let me hit options or anything  it downloaded all the files i can run paragon chat (cause it has a different patcher)  but i cant run homecoming. when my hubby runs it in exact same directory  also windows  10 same virus scan   he gets the full homecoming logo even before it downloads anything

I just  get this  window. ive followed as much of silks advice as I can.

Today I started having the same issue.  Do you ever get a solution?

I am having Tequila issues as well. I click it to open it, you can watch the green bar start to go from left to right, and then it just disappears. I can't click into the validation option as it closes to fast to get there.

[Tolk63]

Okay.

 

So, I deleted anything to do with Tequila and downloaded it again, I am back up and playing once more.  Just wanted to pass this info on. Best of Luck!

Use this to make your exceptions:

I have the whole City of Heroes / Tequila folder in the whitelist, that way if something changes, then the whole folder Should be ignored. So for me that would be the location: c:\Games\COX\

 

 

From the Sticky for installation and troubleshooting:

For crashing problems, including crashing on start up, you can also try deleting the tequila.xml and the tequilalog.xml as this has helped some users according to reports.

It's happened yet again.

 

I click the Tequila.exe icon, it starts to load up, then disappears before I can try to validate. Anyone know of anything to be done about this? Deleting and reloading Tequila is a pain in the butt.

This just started happening to me too.  I didn't log on yesterday at all, but prior to that I had been playing every day without issue.  Was there any update to the server at all?

Just checked the Tequila activity log.....

I did a quick scan of the log from the last month of play and didn't notice that last line anywhere but just now when I started having problems.  Is this a valid location to be checking for downloads?

Everything else looks exactly the same as every other time I've run Tequila to open the game.

 

Any suggestions?

[Tolk63]

This last time all I did to correct the issue was to restart my pc. No deleting and reloading Tequila again, thank god.

 

Hope that helps out some of you.
