Minecraft Forums

Purchased and downloaded the game for my son. Can't get a single player game to load. The launcher works. It brings me to the main screen. When I attempt to play a game in single player mode, I get this message:

GAME CRASH

The game crashed whilst updating screen events
Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: failed to create a child event loop

The "view crash report" link doesn't work.

What's up?

Trend Micro HijackThis is a utility that is used to collect diagnostic reports of your computer to help narrow down an issue you may be having. Download: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hjt/files/2.0.520beta/HijackThis.exe/download Run the program, choose "I accept", then "Do a scan and save a log file". After a while a text file will open. Copy everything, put the log on http://paste.ubuntu.com and give us the link.

This is a known error when your Antivirus program prevents Minecraft from loading.

Thats why I ask for a hjt report

Thanks for taking time to look at this. Link below.

Malwarebytes is an anti-malware program that removes malware and potentially unwanted programs from your PC.

Download it here: http://www.malwarebytes.org/ run a scan and delete everything it inds

Ran it and Hijack again. What you think?

Deactivate AVG Antivirus and/or Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and see if it works then

AVG is not known to cause issues and Malware bytes was just installed

I've had Malwarebytes for sometime, but I've been neglecting this computer for a bit. Ran it twice, and re-ran HJT. Here's the new log. Thanks! :-)

Does it work now?

Negative. Still crashing, saying "The game crashed whilst updating screen events. Error: java.lang.IllegalStateException: failed to create a child event loop"

I wonder if its AVG at it again, uninstall it, restart your pc and try again

Negative, but the crash report link started working link
