A week or two ago, I started hitting an error at the very beginning of any online match (ranked, etc.). Other PCs in my home are unaffected, so I don’t think my networking/internet infrastructure is a factor.
My game version reports as aoe age4 13.2.4553.0.
Here’s the error I see:
Error loading match results
An unexpected error has occurred due to a possible de-synchronization of match participants. Match data may not be accurate and final match results may not be available.

Some troubleshooting steps I’ve tried:
- Rebooting.
- Uninstalling and reinstalling the game.
- Ensuring that I’m not connected to VPN when playing the game.
I’m a Windows Insider, so it’s possible that the version of Windows I’m running is in play (currently Windows 11 Insider Preview Build 27871). I didn’t notice a correlation between a new Windows build and the AOE4 issue, but it’s possible that I missed it.
