If your FarmVille 2 game is not loading, it's important to check if the Farmville 2 Launcher is properly working. To do this, we must ensure that two files, Farmville Two.exe and Farm2Launch.exe, are running.

To verify if these two files are running for FarmVille 2 properly, you have to access the FarmVille 2 Launcher desktop icon, which should automatically run the game. It is also highly recommended that you fully shut down or restart your computer after every game session to avoid any issues loading the game the next time you play.

In case the issue persists, the steps below will further ensure that your Launcher will run accordingly:

1. Check the 'Task Manager' or 'Activity Monitor' to ensure that files for the Launcher are properly running.

What are the Task Manager and Activity Monitor?

For Windows:

  • Open your Task Manager.
  • If it shows 'More details,' click the button to show all the tabs.
  • Click the 'Process' tab.
  • Locate the Farm2Launce.exe and Farmville Two.exe processes. Tip: You can press 'F' to easily find them.

Mac:

  • Open the Activity Monitor application (located in Applications > Utilities)
  • Scroll through the list of processes displayed in the main window.
  • Locate Farm2Launce.exe and Farmville Two.exe. Tip: You can use the search bar to quickly find a process by typing its name.

2. If the Farm2Launce.exe and Farmville Two.exe processes are not on the list, skip this step and step C.

If the processes are on the list and your game is still not loading, you can remove them using 'End Task' or 'Force Quit'.

How do I 'End Task' or 'Force Quit' my Farmville 2 game?

3. Once the Farm2Launce.exe and Farmville Two.exe processes are removed or not in the list anymore, you can run them manually.

  • To do this, we have to Locate the folder where your Launcher was installed. The default location in your computer is 'C:\Program Files\Farm2Desktop'. It should look like the screenshot below:



  • Run or Double-click the Farm2Launce.exe and Farmville Two.exe files.

Note: For Mac users, we use the Finder App and run the application from there.

4. Once you've Run both files, you can refresh your game page if you have one open or open up a new game page.

Note: Your game may take a while to load, and it is highly recommended that you wait 2-3 minutes before refreshing it.

If the green bar is stuck for over 3 minutes, you can return to Step 2 and try it again.
