Delta Force is here and you can play the game for free! That is not all; there is also an online aspect with Co-op and PvP modes! But while some players have no issues with the game, others have to deal with lag, stutters, and sometimes with the Error Code 39. That being said, in this guide, we will go over the Error Code 39 in the game, discuss what it is, and most importantly, how to fix it. So, stick around until the end.
Error Code 39 in Delta Force shows up with a “login component internal error,” which may point to issues with account authentication or server connectivity. In a nutshell, when you face an error, you are kept away from the online elements of the game. Well, without any further ado, let’s take a look at some potential fixes.
Delta Force Error Code 39: How to fix?
Unfortunately, as of writing this guide, we do not have any official words regarding this issue from the developers. While a hotfix did drop, the patch notes do not mention Error Code 39, and for now, all we have are potential fixes. The key word here is “potential”, as they may or may not work for everyone. Nevertheless, here are those workarounds!
Restart Your Game and PC
First things first, try restarting the game and then your PC! When you restart, it refreshes system memory and resets background processes that could be interfering with the game’s login component. Make sure to close the game completely before restarting, as leaving it running in the background might not resolve the issue.
Close Internet-Related Apps and Background Processes
Internet-related applications and processes running in the background can consume bandwidth. Programs like torrent clients, streaming services, or even browser tabs with heavy data usage can interfere. Open your Task Manager and check for these applications. End any unnecessary processes to free up bandwidth for Delta Force.
Check Your Internet Connection
A stable and reliable internet connection is essential for avoiding login errors like Error Code 39. Begin by restarting your router to refresh the connection and resolve potential network hiccups. For the best stability, switch to a wired LAN connection instead of Wi-Fi, as it reduces latency and minimizes the chances of disconnection. If the problem persists, try connecting to a different network, such as a mobile hotspot, to rule out issues with your internet service provider.
Try a VPN or Disable It
Using a VPN can help by routing your connection through a different server. This can often resolve login errors caused by blocked or unstable connections. However, if you’re already using a VPN and experiencing Error Code 39, try disabling it, as VPNs can sometimes interfere with the game’s ability to connect to its servers.
DNS Settings
You can also consider switching to alternative DNS servers such as Google DNS or OpenDNS. To do so,
- On the Start menu, open the Settings icon and head to network settings.
- Within the Network settings, click on “Properties, scroll to “DNS server assignment” and click on “Edit”.
- Switch from automatic DNS server assignment to “Manual”.
- Once you’ve found the DNS settings, you’ll see fields where you can input DNS server addresses.
- Replace the existing addresses with alternative options like Google DNS (8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4) or OpenDNS (208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220).
- Make sure to save your changes.
To apply the new DNS settings, restart both your router and your PC. Start the game and see if a different DNS fixes the issues.
Check for Game Updates
Finally, since the game is fresh off of the shelves, chances are that there will be more patches and updates in the future. Perhaps one of the future updates will fix the issue. So, check for updates by opening the Steam client, navigating to Delta Force, and looking for any available updates. Make sure to download and install them.
These are the workarounds that we have for now. We hope that the error gets resolved from the developer’s end, once and for all.
