    I've been playing upbeat giraffe but after a bug fix update it comes up with 2 error messages.
    Error: Fatal Exception Caught: (IOException) Rename error: 3
    IOException::IOException(string)
    File::rename(String, String)
    Configuration::Configuration(Variant, Maybe<String>)
    unique_ptr<Configuration, default_delete<Configuration> > make_unique<Configuration, Map<String, Variant, unordered_map<String, Variant, hash<String, void>, equal_to<String>, allocator<pair<String, Variant> > > >, String>(Map<String, Variant, unordered_map<String, Variant, hash<String, void>, equal_to<String>, allocator<pair<String, Variant> > > >, String)
    Root::Root(String, String, LogLevel, bool, String, Map<String, Variant, unordered_map<String, Variant, hash<String, void>, equal_to<String>, allocator<pair<String, Variant> > > >)
    Root::partialInitialize(Map<String, StringList, unordered_map<String, StringList, hash<String, void>, equal_to<String>, allocator<pair<String, StringList> > > >)
    _SDL_main
    _console_main



    And then after :




    Run-time error
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\commom\Starbound\win32\starbound.exe

    This application has requested the runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
    Please contact the application's support team for more information.



    If you could help I would really appreciate it
    Thanks.

    First of all, please don't double- or triple-post. I've already merged two of your posts, and this makes a third.

    And you might want to post your log file, to give people a better idea of what's happening when the error occurs.

    having the same error here, and my error log is exactly the same (aside from the times and the file paths)

    so, pretty much exactly the same, would love a fix, i am absolutely hooked on this game and i hate not being able to play....

    EDIT: for clarification, the error happens when i click any variation of "Launch Starbound" from the launcher.

    Did you delete something under the Starbound.config?

    "serverPasswords" : [ "", "duckies", "swordfish" ],

    I modified this, as a Video said to for hosting a server. Delete it and paste this into it, should work again.

    There was no fix.. But I followed a video ( I wanted to port forward a server for friends, wasn't working ) that told me I had to modify some things.

    I did such, and got that error. I just undid what i had done..

    I believe it was this is the video

    I FIGURED IT OUT
    GO TO YOUR STARBOUND FOLDER

    C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Starbound\giraffe_storage

    THEN DELETE starbound.config

    THEN GO TO STARBOUND 64BIT then double click on starbound OPENGL

    WORKED FOR ME :D

    BEAR IN MIND I WAS RUNNING STEAM

    Hello,
    I tried to do everything you said here but it didn't work, It happened today. I was playing Starbound and it crashed so I relaunched it and my characters were gone, I don't know why but I restarted my computer and now it has the rename error, I reinstalled the game and tried everything everyone said in here, still nothing happened. I was looking for the starbound.config file but I cannot find it. I found 2 files of it but they had some numbers and letters after it. Help anyone?

    EDIT: I figured out that I do not have a file named starbound.config. The reason I do not have it is beyond me. I do need it though so my hypothesis is that you need to ask a friend to send you a copy Via Skype or anywhere you can share the file.
