Then it stated that you would need to download and reinstall the entire game. [SOLUTION] If you have this exact same error at the end of the install, remove that Temp Folder from the game folder and run the launcher again. Go into the main MapleStory folder (C:\Nexon\MapleStory), there will be only 3 folders inside of the main folder, Black Cipher, Hackshield and a Temp Folder with a name similar to this one: etwejxjl.$$$ (random characters with a dot and dollar signs suffixed). The Temp folder, regardless of it’s name, will have dollar signs prefixed in the name $$$$ Transfer TEMP folder to your Desktop and run the game again. If it works, you can safely delete that folder. If you happen to have 2 TEMP folders labeled as .$$$ in them, take away the empty one and it worked, otherwise remove both.

4. Wait for it to stop at ADMIN CHATLOG\
5. Terminate the process by using the administrator window (CTRL + ALT + DEL)
6. Run the game from the GameLauncher.exe in your MapleStory Installation folder.

[NOTE] The problem might lie within the new client (v129.2) that’s presently on the website. Do not download the latest MS from the website, just install the older version v128 and then perform the prepatch.

MapleStory Error Cannot find ‘ijl15.dll’ Please Re-install Application
[ERROR] Themida – http://www.oreans.com – Cannot find ‘ijl15.dll’. Please re-install application. [SOLUTION] MapleStory.exe extracted from .zip must be in MapleStory Installation Directory. For Windows XP Users: C:\Program Files\Wizet\MapleStory

MapleStory Error code:-2147221000 (DLL for class no found)
Download and install Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 and run MapleStory. Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 is a full cumulative update that contains many new features building incrementally upon .NET Framework 2.0, 3.0, 3.5, and includes cumulative servicing updates to the .NET Framework 2.0 and .NET Framework 3.0 subcomponents.

MapleStory Error File does not have Program Associated
[ERROR] The file does not have a program associated with it for performing this action. Please install a program or, if one is already installed, create an assoication in the Default Programs control panel.

This error appears when you attempt to start MapleStory. This is caused by unknown file extension! Your Windows Operating System is given a file and it does not know how to handle the file. So, Windows tries to search for programs in your computer that knows how to handle that particular file. Unfortunately, it couldn’t find any, therefore it pops up the error message above!

The simplest way to fix this problem is to install software that handles that file extension. For instance, you use MSE Installer that automatically download and install a software (MapleStory). When it downloads a file such as MapleStorySetup.ZIP (ZIP file extension), it passes this file to Windows to extract. If your computer has WinZip, 7-Zip or WinRAR installed, Windows passes this extraction job to this software to handle. For MapleStory Users who uses MSE Installer to Download and Install MapleStory, download and Install WinZip/7-Zip/WinRAR.

If your computer has zip extractor installed, perhaps that particular software did not associate itself with the file extension! How to associate the extension? Below is step by step guide.
1) Identify program that handles that file extension
*If its ZIP, it should be a zip extractor such as WinZip*
2) Open Windows Explorer (Right-Click My Computer, and click Explore)
3) Click TOOLS in Menu, then click FOLDER OPTIONS.
4) Click FILE TYPES
5a) Scroll down to the file type (file extension) that you want to modify.
5b) If its not in the list, click NEW and type in the file extension.
*Example: ZIP for MapleStorySetup.ZIP*
6) Select the file type from the list, and click CHANGE
7) Tick “Select the program from a list”
8) Browse program list to the one you identified, for me its WinZip/7-Zip/WinRAR.
9) Press OK to save changes.
10) Retry installing MapleStory.

MapleStory Error Lack of Memory Solution
Lack of Memory. Please refer to the FAQ section of www.maplestory.com for the further detail.

  • [Temporary Solution]
    Increase Computer Virtual Memory (short-term solution) without buying additional RAM.
    1) Click Start > Control Panel > Performance And Maintenance > System
    2) On Advanced Tab, under Performance, Click Settings.
    3) On Advanced Tab, under Virtual Memory, Click Change.
    4) Under Drive (Volume Label) Select drive to change paging file size.
    5) Click Custom Size Check Box.
    6a) Set reserve amount Virtual Memory.
    6b) Read Virtual Memory Tips below to calculate amount of Virtual Memory to reserve.
    7) Click Set.
    8) A window pops up and prompt you to restart your pc. Click Yes.

    Set both initial and maximum size equal amount to prevent Windows from constantly changing paging file. The value of reserve Virtual Memory should be 1.5 times more than your existing RAM. For example: if you have 512 MB RAM, multiply it by 1.5 (Results: 512 x 1.5 = 768 MB RAM). For those who are using SSD (Solid State Drive), it is recommended to limit it to 2GB (Gigabytes) as SSD space is very limited.

  • [Permanent Solution]
    Buy and Install additional RAM (Random Access Memory) into your Motherboard. Investing on a new RAM is your best option for long-term solution. I recommend to get at least 8GB RAM, not the minimum 4GB RAM to run Windows 64bit Operating System as your computer might hog the memory when running intensive tasks.

MapleStory Error code:-2147467259 (unspecified error)
[ERROR] MapleStory Error code:-2147467259 (unspecified error). That error is consistent with the graphics card drivers not properly installed.

  • [Solution 1]
    1) Right-click your Desktop
    2) Select Properties > Select Settings Tab > Click Advanced Button
    3) Select TroubleShoot Tab > Set Hardware Acceleration to max (Move bar to most right)
    4) Click OK to save changes.
  • [Solution 2]
    1) Start > Run > MsConfig > StartUp
    2) Uncheck all Unwanted Program
    3) Right-Click My Computer
    4) Select Properties > Hardware > Device Manager
    5) You will notice a Yellow Question Mark on your Graphic Driver (Example: vga-32123)
    6) Update that driver using your Motherboard Drivers CD

MapleStory Error The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005)
[ERROR] The application was unable to start correctly (0xc0000005) Click OK to close the application.
A very common problem. It usually pertains to ineffective memory processes. A possible solution is to update your .NET Framework, as it is usually the reason for this problem. [Solution] Download and install .NET Framework v4 to update your current .NET Framework. The .NET Framework is Microsoft’s comprehensive and consistent programming model for building applications that have visually stunning user experiences, seamless and secure communication, and the ability to model a range of business processes.

Maplestory Error Code: -2005532292 (unknown error 0x8876017C)
[ERROR] There is a conflict with your firewall and MapleStory. One of your firewall software is hooked to this .DLL (ntdll.dll). [SOLUTION] Try disabling your firewall, and restart MapleStory. If that doesn’t work, uninstall your firewall, restart computer and try running MapleStory. If this solution works, install another firewall software that is compatible with MapleStory. Note: Don’t play MapleStory without your computer being protected with a firewall. Viruses can easily slipped in :)

MapleStory Error 40 Installation Solution
[ERROR] This error occurs when you try to use Nexon Downloader where during the download process, MapleStory Client was corrupted. [SOLUTION] Use a download manager application such as FlashGet or IDM (Internet Download Manager) to help download MapleStory Client from official site to your hard disk. To start using FlashGet, you will need to download and install it into your PC first. Then use FlashGet to grab MapleStory Client download link. This way, you won’t spend hours to get around Error 40.

List of HackShield BlackCipher Issues Fixes

Hackshield Initialization Error : 0×0000000 (0)
Another copy of Maplestory is already running. Please close all instances and try launching again.” The error message is very misleading. Even though you restarted your computer before running MapleStory.exe, and later check your TaskManager only to find 1 instance of MapleStory, you will still get stuck with this error. Below is a list of steps you must do to bypass this error. It took me around 5-6 hours to figure it out.

  1. Add MapleStory and HackShield to your Anti-Virus exception list so it does not prevent it from running them. If you do not know how to add, simply disable the Windows Firewall, 3rd-Party Anti-Virus and Anti-Security and run the game. With your protection disabled, its advisable not to browse through any unknown websites that might be infected with viruses. This first step will bypass the first MapleStory Block that reads something like this: Unable to Connect Server at this time. Please check whether the server is under maintenance or your firewall.
  2. If still fail, set your GameLauncher.exe compatibility mode to Windows XP SP 3 or Windows 7 (both tested by me and it works). Windows XP SP 2 failed to work though. Do not set the Compatiblity Mode for MapleStory.exe otherwise you will receive this error message: HackShied Initialization Error : 0×00000004 (4) = Error cccurs when the game client is executed in the Compatibility Mode provided by Windows XP. Game execution in Compatibility Mode is judged as a user with ill intentions, so program must be ended and restarted (value = 0×004) Please send the detailed information through. If you get that error message, just click the X button to close it, do not need click OK to send any personal information that might be save behind the scenes.
  3. Disable any Microsoft Adapter Loopback (Right-click on Network Icon on the Windows Start Panel, Click Open Network and Sharing Center, Click Change Adapter Settings, If you see multiple Loopback Adapters, disable all of them by right-clicking and click properties, and then disable.)
  4. Most important of all, do not use BlackCipher from maplestory.nexon.net, I have tested it and it did not work (The blackcipher.aes should be at least 2537KB and the BlackCall.aes should be around 290KB). By doing a manual update from hsupdate itself, it somehow downloaded the latest BlackCall.aes and BlackCipher.aes from the server) only then I was able to bypass this infamous HackShield Initialization Error 0×0000000. I have provided a download link (a copy of my 100% working BlackCipher) at the top of this guide for grabs and overwrite your entire BlackCipher folder with it. Of course you could backup your original folder firsts if you wish.

MapleStory HackShield Update Error : 0×30000030 (805306416)

MapleStory HackShield Initialization Error (0×00000100))
HackShield Initialization failed. Please try again after rebooting machine, or killing malicious programs.

Reinstalling MapleStory is the last resort since its kinda of a hassle unless you have downloaded the latest MapleStory Installer client. Sometimes , MapleStory patcher has some issues, corrupting the wz file.

Unlike most people with slow internet connection (waits 8 hours just to download a 3.6 Gigabyte game), they do not have the luxury to wait to reinstall everything correctly.

Usually the first method in dealing with hackshield is to ask another friend who is also playing the same MapleStory version as you to send his folder. You can ask him/her to host the file on mediafire.com (free hosting site – fast download for free user). Download his version and overwrite your current MapleStory hackshield. This works 100%.

Second method is if you do not have any close friends playing MapleStory, then you can let MapleStory itself to recreate the hackshield folder. This is done by deleting the hackshield folder from MapleStory installation folder. And then rerun MapleStory.exe (if you are from GMS, run from the nexon browser – start/play game). It will then check if your hackshield exist, if not recreate. Delete HackShield folder and run MapleStory to force it recreate a new HackShield folder via auto-update or re-install MapleStory.

The last resort is to reinstall MapleStory (if you have the full version) or install an older MapleStory version and patch it up to the current version (takes around 30 minutes or so depending on how many patches needs to be run.

List of MapleStory Disconnection Issues Fixes

Unable to Connect into Login Server
If you are a MapleStory Senior who have not being playing MapleStory for few years or months, and later to find a nice job like Kanna being released and want to try it out, you download MapleStory Full Client, install it and later encounter this error message “Unable to Connect to Login Server”. When you check with your friends about whether MapleStory server is active or try here at SouthPerry GMS Server Status, all the world seems ONLINE instead of OFFLINE. So whats next? The error message here is a little misleading but still hits a nail. You need to disable your anti-virus and firewall temporarily and try again. If it works, re-enable them after you are login to your character. But don’t be happy yet as you might encounter the infamous HackShield Initialization Error 0×00000000 (0) as discussed below with some solution provided.

MapleStory Disconnection Every 1 Minute Exact Or Few Minutes
I tested GMS MapleStory with an online stopwatch and found out that MapleStory always disconnect me after 1 minute. If you are lucky, between 5 minutes to 30 minutes. I have not found a solution to this error. If you do know, please share your solution by posting a comment below. Below are things I have tested on Windows 7 Ultimate Operating System:
0. Disable Firewall (3rd Party and Windows) + Anti-Virus.
1. Tried different worlds (Bera, Scania, Zenith) still dc within 1 minute.
2. Tried bypass BlackCipher with HInjector + bc_bypass.dll
3. Terminated BlackCipher.aes from TaskManager.
4. Tried login into different characters (Kanna, Explorer, Cygnus).
5. Tried changing compatibility mode for GameLauncher.exe
6. Tried changing compatibility mode for HackShield exe applications.
[TEMPORARY-SOLUTION] Change Channel before the 1 minute duration expires! Example, kill 10 monsters, change to next channel, and repeat. [PERMANENT-SOLUTION] For Windows 7 users, try installing MapleStory under C:\Program Files (x86)\Nexon\MapleStory folder instead of C:\Nexon\MapleStory folder.

My character disconnected after entering a portal
The portal itself isn’t broken, probably one of your files is corrupt. I just tried going through every single portal in the tutorial and after the tutorial without a crash. You’ll probably have to re-install MapleStory if you’re crashing, that’s what I did. However, if that still fails see Issue 6 for the next solution.

My character stucked in a beginner place. How to get out?
If you tried to enter a map from the beginner place of Kanna (Momijigaoka), then disconnected and now stuck and can’t log in on it, you can do the following steps to get out of this sticky situation: Exit MapleStory Application and let it sit for approximately 5 minutes. Then try login back on and everything worked fine. If this issue still persist, you have 3 methods of exiting Kanna map:

  • Use Mercedes Link Skill Map to teleport out of Momijigaoka Area.
  • Use Cash Shop Teleport Rock to teleport out of Kanna Beginner Training Ground after you have done the necessary quest in that area.
  • Earn at least 5000 mesos in the training dojo then use the dimensional mirror to go to NLC (New Leaf City), and from there, take the subway to Kerning City.

[Brief bug summary] Kanna char DCs and gets locked after trying to enter the 2nd portal after the tutorial. Seems others are DCing in the new town, and I’m guessing that portal leads to the new town. [Steps to reproduce Issue 6] Create Kanna char, skip tutorial, go into first portal with pop-up quests completed. Finish quests in next map and enter portal. You will DC and if you try to log on you will DC again.

Windows 8 Application Error Fix Solution
—-Full Credit For This Solution Belongs To DUCKMANNEO From BasilMarket.com —-

I’ve been using Windows 8 and like a LOT of people, I was receiving this error:
MapleStory: MapleStory.exe – Application error
The instruction at 0x0062db33 referenced memory at 0×05055215. The memory could not be written.

Now, a lot of people said to “play in steam” and “play in another compatibility mode” and those simply didn’t help or change anything at all. I found this solution online last night and I wanted to share it for those of you that are still have trouble with the game not loading up and giving that error message above.

This is what people meant when they said “Play the game in steam”. IT wasn’t as simple as downloading the game on Steam and playing.

1.) Go to: http://store.steampowered.com/
2.) In the top right corner, hit “install steam”
3.) While it’s loading, create a steam account here: https://store.steampowered.com/join/
4.) Now open up file explorer and go to “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam”
5.) Create a new folder and call it “Steamapps”.
6.) Create a new folder in Steamapps and call it “Common”.
7.) Then go to “C:\Nexon”
8.) Copy the “MapleStory” folder and paste it in “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steamapps\Common”
9.) Launch Steam and go to “Library”
10.) In the bottom left corner, click “Add A Game”
11.) Click on MapleStory and then Add it.
12.) Right click MapleStory (in your taskbar) and click “Properties”
13.) Change the Target to this: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\Steamapps\Common\MapleStory\nxsteam.ex e”
14.) Now just launch MapleStory from your taskbar. It requires you are logged into Steam. You can only link one Nexon account to one Steam account so if you wanna switch Maple accounts, you gotta make/change your Steam account and all that.

PLEASE NOTE:
I don’t know how it the result will be for other people, but at first I got three crash errors. After that, the game loaded. Since then, I have launched the game 6 times with no errors. I hope this works for everyone else that’s having this issue and I’ll check back every so often to answer questions if I am able to.

If you don’t want to use steam or if it still doesn’t work for you. here’s a solution.
1.Move your Nexon/Maplestory folder to Program files x86
2.Go to the Nexon/Maplestory folder when inside the Program files x86
3. Create a shortcut for “Gamelauncher.exe”
4. Drag it out to your Desktop. (Optional step rename your shortcut.)
5.Right click on the shortcut and go to “properties”.
6. Under “target” after the quotes press space bar once and add the following line “-opengl” without the quotes
7. press ok
8. Enjoy!!

[Guide] How to fix Windows 8 Error in v.124
In patch v.124, Nexon fixed the Windows 8 Compatibility issues.
However, for some users, an Application Error continues to occur after the patch.

The problem:
HackShield loads up, BlackCiph3r loads, and then an Application Error appears.

The cause:
MapleStory v.123 was not completely removed from the computer BEFORE installing MapleStory v.124.
Therefore, the leftover files from v.123 caused the error.

The fix:
1. Go to Control Panel -> Programs -> Uninstall a Program, and uninstall MapleStory from the programs list.
2. Download MapleStory
3. Install MapleStory v.124 to a different folder, DON’T INSTALL to C:/Nexon.
4. After the installation was finished, start MapleStory from the website.
Congratulations! It should work smoothly now.
I’ve tried starting the game multiple times, and it works perfectly.
Enjoy playing MapleStory!
