World of Tanks can be customized with mods. However, they can malfunction anytime, especially after an update. Also, outdated video card drivers and corrupted settings and cache can cause trouble.
Mods
- Make sure all your mods are up to date.
- If no luck, delete all mods.
Default Mods folder: World_of_Tanks\res_mods\current_version*
INFO. *Leave the empty folder with the number of the newest game version.
Settings and Cache
- On your desktop, press Windows key + R.
- Type: %appdata%\wargaming.net\WorldOfTanks.
- Press Enter.
- Delete the WorldOfTanks folder.
How to Update Video Card Drivers
Issues Persist!

- Reinstall World of Tanks.
- Still no luck? FOLLOW THIS LINK to contact Player Support.
- Please include a WGCheck report.
You should add defragging if you suffer slow load times on a HDD.
Use a tool that allows you to fully defrag the disk (Windows’ doesn’t)
Doing updates can cause a lot of fragmentation.
I use defraggler, but there are others
Not if your using an SSD! Pointles and at worst counterproductive.
Well that’s pretty much the same should you contact WG support:
Clear the cache
Reinstal the game
Reinstall windows
Rebuild your house
Start a new family
Relocate to another planet
Our game is still bug-ridden and laggy? Awwww, sucks to be you. Thank you for contacting customer support.
WG if you experience technical issues:
Update/delete mods
Clear the cache
Reinstall the game
Update video drivers
Also WG:
We will be pushing out a micropatch that fixes “some technical errors”
I’ve been crashing constantly since 1.2 and have given up on support. I have started to suspect my video card, though, to be fair (even though it’s only 3.5y old). I hope I haven’t been gaslit.
