    > Check for registry corruption in your system. It is quite possible that the registry data has been damaged due to the corrupted registry keys created by the Minecraft. Such issues in Windows registry, which is a database to store information about all the computer programs, causes Minecraft to crash frequently. A reliable registry repairing program can help you clean Windows registry efficiently.

    > Clean system junk files and browser junk files with the registry cleaner/PC optimizer software such as RegInOut Optimizer.

    > Defrag Windows registry data to make the game play smooth by organizing the fragmented registry data.

    > Check for antivirus/firewall blocking the game.

    > Delete temporary files of the Minecraft.

    > Update Video Card drivers. Sometimes the outdated drivers also result in Minecraft crash.

    > Increase RAM. It is recommended you are having the required RAM capacity to avoid game troubles.

    > Download Minecraft again if the solutions listed above are not working to fix the problem.

    > Connect with the port number included, like this:

    127.0.0.1:25565

    > Reinstall java

    > Special character such as (!) in the Windows user name might also create trouble. Changing the Windows account user name can be helpful.

    > Sometimes the problem is caused due to the server overload. If you are able to play the game in single player offline mode then it is surely the server issue and you have to wait to play the game in multiplayer mode.

    Minecrafr has latley been contaminated with viruses and bugs that reason crashes,errors, and freezing. All you're able to be able to do is wait it out a pair of hours. or it is fairly helpful to delete minecraft and procure it back on the excellent circumstances. yet you need to shop all suggestions contained interior the .minecraft bin and then paste it after re downloaded.

    I heard that there is a problem with Nvidia graphics cards and minecraft. I don't have Nvidia graphics, but I have heard that if you lower the graphics settings and render distance that it will stop crashing
