What is Dev Error 6036 in Call of Duty: Warzone?

Call of Duty: Warzone gamers may encounter Dev Error 6036 every time a new update drops. They need to follow a few steps to solve it when it occurs.

If the game requires an update that didn't download on its own, that'll cause a 6036 error. The first and easiest thing to do when it shows this error message is to close the title and check for an update. After manually updating the game, it should run properly.

If there isn't an update waiting to be installed, players might have to reset the game's data folder. Open the application folder for the title and delete the data folder. The information within could be corrupted, so erasing it could solve the problem.

Users who enjoy the game in a language other than English encounter this error more often than others. Consider changing the language to English and try to jump into another match to see if that solves the issue.

If none of those fixes dispose of the 6036 error message, gamers can try to change the settings. In the graphics tab, they can turn off cache sun shadows, cache spot shadows, and the cache box. This could sort out the error and give a nice boost to the average FPS.

Finally, the last ditch effort of every modern game is to uninstall and reinstall. Delete the game and redownload it; the problem will likely be fixed. This could take hours, however, so try everything else first.
