What are games.xml Error Messages?


General games.xml Runtime Errors

games.xml file errors often occur during the startup phase of Garena+, but can also occur while the program is running. These types XML errors are also known as “runtime errors” because they occur while Garena+ is running. Here are some of the most common games.xml runtime errors:

Most XML errors are due to missing or corrupt files. Your games.xml file could be missing due to accidental deletion, uninstalled as a shared file of another program (shared with Garena+), or deleted by a malware infection. Furthermore, games.xml file corruption could be caused from a power outage when loading Garena+, system crash while loading or saving games.xml, bad sectors on your storage media (usually your primary hard drive), or malware infection. Thus, it’s critical to make sure your anti-virus is kept up-to-date and scanning regularly.

Download games.xml Files (Malware-Tested 100% Clean)


CAUTION : We strongly advise against downloading and copying games.xml to your appropriate Windows system directory. Garena Online typically does not release Garena+ XML files for download because they are bundled together inside of a software installer. The installer's task is to ensure that all correct verifications have been made before installing and placing games.xml and all other XML files for Garena+. An incorrectly installed XML file may create system instability and could cause your program or operating system to stop functioning altogether. Proceed with caution.
