With the release of Avatar Frontiers of Pandora, players are already in the midst of chaos, as most can’t start, open, or even launch Avatar Frontiers of Pandora. Let’s get to the depth and fix the issue.
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora from Ubisoft is a fresh take on the popular Avatar series where distant futuristic humans search for an Earth-like planet “Pandora” and succeed.
But, it already is a shelter for massive blue-colored species known as “Na’vi”. They are quite like cavemen who utilize the natural resources of their planet and sustain their peak physical attributes like agility, strength, focus, and so on.
Just like Earth, Pandora also has unique things and one of them involves consciousness change, teleporting one’s consciousness from the Human body to the Na’vi body, and so on.
The Avatar Frontiers of Pandora takes us into the same concept where humans with their technology are trying to take over Pandora, but Na’vi – residents of Pandora and its natural habitats get in the way, defending themselves and the planet.
Now, let’s discuss Avatar Frontiers of Pandora Not Starting, Launching, and Opening on your system after purchasing the game.
Why is Avatar Frontiers of Pandora Not Starting?
There are various reasons behind the game not starting, launching, or opening. Most notable is the game’s requirement that stops players from playing the game unless their system can run it.

Furthermore, the release date of the game is also the cause of the issue here. It isn’t global, meaning some of you might get the game a bit late in contrast to others.
Your system settings, files, and launcher are also the cause of the issue here. But with that being said, let’s get to the fix below.

Verify Game Files
Avatar Frontiers of Pandora is available exclusively on Epic Game Launcher and Ubisoft Connect. Fortunately, the Avatar Frontiers of Pandora allows you to verify and repair game files:
- Open Epic Games Launcher
- Go to the Games Library
- Search for Avatar Frontiers of Pandora
- Click on the three dots on the right
- Click on Manage
- Press “Verify” to start the validation process
Update GPU Drivers
This one is rare in the scenario but could be the culprit. When your system hasn’t had a GPU Driver update in a while, it can also result in the Game Not Starting, Launching, and Opening.
- For Nvidia, you can download the Drivers from Nvidia Experience.
- For AMD, you can download the Drivers from AMD Adrenaline or through the manual method.
- Search “Updates” on Windows and let it load up all the latest updates available.
Close and Restart the Game/Launcher
Epic Games is always running in the background, even if you close it on the screen. Whenever a game is launched on Epic, you will have to close and restart it. Right-click on the taskbar, below, on your Windows, and then select Task Manager.
Here, you need to find an Epic Launcher or Ubisoft Launcher and close everything that is related to them. Then, restart your system once, and when you are back, you need to start the launcher.
Start Avatar Frontiers of Pandora and you won’t have the issue of the game not starting, opening, or launching.
Disable Antivirus and Firewall Protection
Antivirus takes all the measures to stop the malware and virus-flagged files. While it is perfect in doing so, it is not perfect in flagging files. Sometimes the Antivirus will flag your in-game files and software as potential viruses and malware as well.
Ultimately, it will stop the files from accessing the system completely, and not running as a result. In this case, disabling Antivirus will fix Avatar Frontiers of Pandora not starting, opening, and launching.
Also, as an extra, you might want to head over to Windows Firewall settings and add Avatar Frontiers of Pandora. It will disable the Firewall Protection for the game.
Reinstall Game
As a final measure, you might want to simply Reinstall the Game after properly uninstalling it either through the Epic Launcher or Ubisoft Launcher.
