Technical Support - Stuck at checking resources - Forum

Im having the same problem, stuck on checking resources for hours. using windows 7.	Posted by antklant on Apr 8, 2016, 12:21:10 AM Quote this Post
Same here and I'm using Windows 10. GGG, your recent 2.2.1f update allegedly only improving Currency Stash tabs seems to have gotten folks stuck at checking resources. In my case that was subsequent to an error message telling me Content.ggpk was corrupted and should be deleted, wherein I followed instructions (and can't restore the files to a previous version as an alternate fix) so.... I've been running the Resource Check all day, might be because I'm running 5 internet windows at a time to kill boredom but it's seemingly running unbearably slow for a 2 megabyte per second download speed and the like (though the processor itself is weaker). I have storage space & et cetera to my knowledge. Please let us know if there's a fix?	Posted by Ltlandpa1 on Apr 8, 2016, 1:16:33 AM Quote this Post
Reviving this topic because the launcher will not get past "Checking resources..." for me. HELP! IGN: Transience STANDARD: WTB > MF/ES Gear (Unset Rings/ES Chest)	Posted by Badmon on Apr 9, 2016, 3:56:53 PM Quote this Post
" So here is what's happening with the bastard, the client is writing itself a file list for some stupid reason (Client.txt), and until that file list is done nothing else will ever work. Problem is this stupid ass process just gets stuck every couple thousand lines, but it needs to get up to around a million lines(125MB roughly) to be done. Deleting all the other stuff/setting privileges/disabling firewalls doesn't really have an effect, it is only when you start the client again and again that it manages to write a couple more lines towards the final number needed. So the "fix" is to keep restarting that borked client every minute or so until it moves forward. I wonder if sharing the Client.txt could make speed up this nonsense. Worked for me. Had to restart it like 15-20 times	Posted by Veurules on Apr 13, 2016, 4:43:29 AM Quote this Post

I solved it. it works to turn off my firewall/antivirus program and run to admin.	Posted by gary_mandate on Apr 15, 2016, 4:05:46 PM Quote this Post
Rather than turning off anti-virus software, a permanent hassle free solution seems to be to add the program directory to your anti-virus exceptions list. You may not need to add the entire folder perhaps just the executable would be enough. I leave that to others to figure out.

Nothing in this thread fixed the 'checking resources' issue for me - Eventually I found this thread https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1255700/page/2 in the beta forums, that worked for me. Basically fire up your POE and watch your POE CPU usage. When your CPU usage heads to Zero then close and restart your launcher again, and again until 'Checking Resources' becomes 'Allocating Space'. Hope this helps Peeps out there :) Last edited by TheBeany on Apr 21, 2016, 12:46:51 AM	Posted by TheBeany on Apr 21, 2016, 12:21:40 AM Quote this Post
