Hello,

Does anyone have the same problem - Cortex 10.8.15.0 version is loading indefinitely after logon. Doesn’t show the main screen.

Reinstalled few times, cleaned temp etc. Tested on 3 different PCs all on Win 10 Pro (even one of them newly installed OS) - and not working at all.

Hey,

Thank you for reply. I’ve deleted the 3 modules from appsettings.json file, and cortex ran after that, but still some modules wouldn’t work correctly (for eg. Rewards tab is not working correcly, even after relog):

After I’ve restarted PC - cortex no longer starts.

I have a similar problem, the program starts but I have had this message in the DEALS and REWARDS tabs for a few days. @Michelle-RazerCortexPC  any idea?

@FiszPL Sorry to hear you're having a problem, hope they fix it soon.

@Michelle-RazerCortexPC the solution worked. I will remember it. Unfortunately, I lost 4 days of collecting coins, and last week also 2 or 3 because the game didn't count playing time. I'm sending the logs

Hey @FiszPL,

 

We have released the new version. Please check the updates in the SETTINGS and see if you can update it. If not, please wait for 3-4 days. 

 

Let me know if this issue persists.
