Hollow Knight Crashes upon opening after installing a mod ⚠️
This error can happen for a number of reasons. Read through all of the common reasons below to see which might apply to you.
-
Your game patch doesn't match the installer you used
- Modding is currently done on patch 1.5.78+, and this is what all current installers require. If you're on Steam, then make sure you are not accidentally using a Beta patch (Beta should be set to "None")
- "Mod Installer" ( Zote) and Mod Installer 2 are made for version 1.4.3.2, and should no longer be used. If you watched or read something that said to use these, then it is outdated information.
- There aren't installers for other patches, like 1.2.2.1. If you are looking for speedrunning mod help, then type
?tag 1221into chat for more information.
-
Something didn't install correctly
- Right-Click the installer, and select "Run as Administrator"
- Ensure that the installer is not still in a
.zip file(if you downloaded it as a.zip, then you'll need to Extract the files from it) - Make sure that you moved the Installer file(s) out of your Downloads folder
-
Your game is cracked / pirated

- Piracy is not supported in most communities for games, and discussing it is against Discord Community Guidelines. Mods are not considered compatible with pirated copies, and you will not get troubleshooting support in any of the main servers for them.
- Modding is only supported on the official computer versions from Steam, GoG, or Xbox Games.
- If you do not have a supported version, then please get it and then you can get support with modding. Asking for assistance with unsupported versions may result in moderation action.
- Hollow Knight goes on sale regularly, and you can keep an eye on this website for when it is: https://isthereanydeal.com/game/hollowknight/
The thing is that I've tried this in another computer and it worked fine
I made the exact same settings in both
And they are almost identical in terms of hardware
So this simply doesn't make sense
I'm reinstalling Hollow Knight, the mods and Scarab to see what happens
Are you 100% sure you're on the correct patch?
Yes

You must be on the correct patch!
🔹 For Scarab, you must change "Betas" to "None"
🔹 1432 Modding (and ModInstaller) is no longer supported.
🔹 1221 Modding does not use an installer; type "?tag 1221" for info on it.

I've scrolled through support the entire night yesterday
The only thing that remains for me is to reinstall everything and try my luck
Is suggest double checking the beta first- if for some reason you're not on None I think it will just reinstall the wrong patch
It worked
