As I was waiting for my Shadow PC to restart, I got to the “Starting Shadow” part and it’s just stuck there now. When I press the button, it shows me a screen with a small box displaying my Shadow lock screen. The time is going up so my Shadow PC is clearly started but it isn’t opening the stream window for it. It’s just stuck on this screen saying “We’re almost there! Your Shadow needs a little more time to get started. Please wait a moment.” :/

Give it up to 5 mins on this screen, if no luck. Go to the Help Panel, issue a shutdown, once it says Shadow is off, wait 5 mins and start again.

I also already tried shutting down with the power button and waiting 10-15 minutes.

#

Still having this error

#

but

#

Before I even restarted my Shadow, I turned off all services except every Microsoft service as I was attempting to fix something inside of my Shadow. I am not sure if thats the reason why it isn’t starting the stream but hopefully that could be of assistance to helping me with this problem.

Ah..

chilly portal
#

Does Shadow use a service inside to connect to the stream?

zinc agate
#

So you maybe broke the streamer lol

Wow. I was just trying to fix my game issue.

#

Is there anyway to fix this?

#

or revert the change?

zinc agate
#

No game should require turning off services to get it working... What was it ?

#

You will need to reset your Shadow

You will need to contact Support to get a link to your drive, then reset

#

In future, back up files 🙂

on Shadow and it worked fine

#

but for some reason it crashes as soon as I run the launcher for the game

#

They said that it would help fix that issue

Thought it would be fine if I disabled everything but Microsoft services. Plus I was gonna just enable everything back if it didn’t solve my issue.

@zinc agate Been like 8 hours of waiting for support. How long does it take for them to answer?
