If you've played Age of Empires, you know that Age of Empires 4 is developed by Relic Entertainment, and attracts Age of Empires fans from all over the world. Even though the RTS Classic has great visual and audio improvements, the game has also fallen victim to a bug indicating "string not found" everywhere.
There is no game that makes the player completely satisfied. And the same thing happened with this game. Age of Empires 4 has been facing a lot of issues since its launch and the "string not found" bug is plaguing the players who have been waiting for the game since 2005. The error message appears everywhere in the game, including the menu and title screen.
How to fix the “String not found” Bug in Age of Empires 4
After spending an entire day researching the error prompt and talking to community members, I've come to the conclusion that the error is mainly caused by a conflict with your computer's language settings. Players reported that changing the language setting to English automatically fixes the error and removes all instances of 'String [$11168262] not found'.
Fixing the “String not found” Bug
If you’re on Steam, here’s how you can set your language to English in order to solve the issue:
- Open your Steam Library and click on Age of Empires 4
- Next, you need to select Properties
- Click on the Language tab
- Search and choose English from the menu
- Files for English language will be automatically downloaded after this.
Here’s how you can fix the error if you’ve acquired the game from Microsoft Store or the Xbox App:
- Close all other apps and open Windows Settings
- Open the Time & language setting and then click on Language
- Now you need to set the Windows Display Language to English (United States)
- If you cannot find English (United States), you can go over to the Preffered Languages section and add it manually
- If you can see the language under the Preferred languages section, simply drag it to the top of the list to change Age of Empires 4’s language
This should fix your Age of Empires 4 and remove any instances of the error prompt. Age of Empires 4 has faced a lot of bugs since its launch. If you are also facing any problem while running the game? so please comment us
