- Close Blizzard programs on your PC.
- Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open the Task Manager and go to Processes.
- If agent.exe is running or Blizzard Update Agent in Windows 10 is running, click on it to highlight it and then choose End Process to close properly.
- Now, press Windows + R to open the Run dialog box.
- Type %ProgramData% in the Run field and press Enter.
- Right-click on the Blizzard Entertainment folder in the directory and select Delete.
- Restart the Battle.net launcher and restart the game.
3. Verify Game Files (Repair)

- Next, click on the Modern Warfare game.
- Select Settings under the game title.

5. Check Windows Update
- Click on Start > Click on the Settings menu (gear icon).
- Select Update & Security > Click Check for updates under the Windows Update section.
- If a new update is available, you should download and install it.
- Most importantly, Windows 10 cumulative updates are quite necessary.

6. Remove all overlay application
The overlay apps offer useful features or options for pro gamers or multiplayer games. However, the overlay apps always run in the background, which eats memory a lot and also can occur Dev Errors. So, if you don’t use these features, you should disable the Nvidia GeForce Experience Overlay. Additionally, you can disable Discord Overlay, etc.
While Xbox Gamebar users can also disable it from the Start menu > Settings > Gaming > Record game clips, screenshots, and broadcasts using the Game bar. Additionally, you can go to Captures > Turn off Background recording.
