I re-installed windows 8.1 from usb. I ran all windows updates, Installed all runtimes, netframe works and video card drivers. I have a very minimal OS install, no other conflicting programs from this list. REMOVED: Geforce experience. Enabled a hearthbuddy.exe exception AND disabled windows firewall + windows defender. Removed Openbroadcaster. Removed Razer Synapse. Removed Teamspeak 3. Removed Discord. Have no anti virus installed yet. Have 0 WoW client addons, Also dont even have WoW installed. I was pretty annoyed, that the bot still did not work. I did restart PC multiple times and tried running the bot. I tried running in administrator mode. I unblocked the hearthbuddy.exe in program options.
No the game does not crash. Hearthbuddy gives error, I close hearthbuddy then just play the game. I tried everything to fix this problem, My last resort is to install windows 7 and hope that works. When I used hearthbuddy 2+ years ago I had windows 7 64bit. I am using windows 8.1 64bit currently.
Tony, I have Windows 7 x64 installed into a VM. I have nothing installed except Hearthbuddy and Hearthstone. full Windows updates, Windows defender, Windows firewall disabled. It works now!
