Hey there.

Are you using BitDefender? If so there is a known issue regarding this that is under investigation and we hope to have deployed a fix for this issue very soon. Please keep an eye on the Siege twitter account for updates on this.

If not the first thing I would suggest is to attempt each step suggested here. These steps are known to resolve most of the common causes of crashing/freezing.

If after doing so you're still experiencing issues I'd then recommend opening a support case. You can reach us either through the support website by opening a live chat session or alternatively through our social media accounts on Facebook and Twitter and they will be able to create a support case for you.

The reports we’ll need from you are linked below. These should help us to identify any potential cause of the crashing/freezing you’re currently experiencing.

Ah I see, thank you for clarifying that.

As you don't use BitDefender, please follow the steps listed by Ubi-Orion above.

The support article will hopefully help you resolve the issue but if not, we can review your system files in a support case.

Enjoy your day!
