Twelve Minutes keeps crashing, freezing, or showing black screen
If Twelve Minutes keeps crashing, freezing, or showing a black screen on your Windows 11/10 computer, check out the following solutions to resolve the issue. Let us talk about them in detail.
1] Play the game in Windowed Mode
There are two ways to open the game in Windowed Mode, that is via Steam and the game file. We would recommend you try the Steam method first and if that doesn’t work, you can try altering the game files. Switch to Windowed Mode via Steam Switch to Windowed Mode via Game Files This is a tricky method, first of all, open File Explorer or This PC, paste the following address, and hit Enter. Once you are in the WGS folder, open the folder with only numbers in its name (the name may be different on different computers). Now, open the folders with numbers and letters. Look for a smaller 1 KB file and open it with Notepad. Look for “fullscreenMode”:1 and change it to 0, for example “fullscreenMode”:0. Hit Ctrl + S and try opening the game.
2] Stop other apps
This may not be a cure for crashing but will do the trick if your game is freezing a lot. You need to make sure that no other heavy app such as Discord, Chrome, or Edge is running in the background as you open the game. To do that, open Task Manager and check the Processes tab. You will see which app is consuming the most resources, then, just right-click on it and select End Task.
3] Disable Overlay
The Overlay gives some extra features while playing a game. However, sometimes, it can conflict with your game and cause issues. We should disable Overlay and see if that works. Following is the method to disable Steam Overlay.
Open Steam.Go to Library.Right-click on Twelve Minutes and select Properties.Make sure that you are on the General tab and untick Enable Steam Overlay while in-game.
Now, reopen the game and see if that works. If you have some other app with Overlay, disable it as well.
