Deadlock detected

When I first launched the game, a "deadlock detected" message appeared. I chose not to click "OK" and just let it be. After a while, the game started up. I then switched the graphics settings to DirectX 11 and restarted the game. After the restart, the "deadlock detected" popup was gone, and the game launched without any issues.

It's seem like a unsolvable issue for them. this multi-threading issue is there since 0.1

i confirm :( its really sad that if they can't optimize or understand the code since 1 year :( and its getting worse and worse
dunno how they will change that next year

Maybe we will need to wait for another 10 years, just like the offline merchant, wait for 10+ years and finally come true :D

lol each patch is getting worse and worse
so in 10 year the game will auto destruct himself
you know IA, its the opposite :D :D N.B.I : NoBrainIntelligence :D

Stuck in act 1 with this problem as well decided to uninstall the game. Hope there is a fix.

Thanks

This worked for me!

I am getting the same thing since 0.4, does anyone have an idea what could be causing this?

Thanks in advance

I did this, it didnt work for me.

I know some people suggested go from Vulkan to Direct X, I cant even get that far before getting disconnected (and this is even when I ignore the "Ok")

Hmmm, When the game showed this error again while loading a level, I decided to just leave it. Eventually the level loaded and I simply moved the error window to the side and continued playing.

The league is not playable!

I started having "Deadlock detected" issues since 0.4.0c, I've tried pretty much every fix I've found on the forums and on Reddit and nothing seems to help (updated drivers, updated Windows, cleared shader cache, deleted the PoE2 folder in My Games, switched from DX12 to Vulkan, disabled multithreading, validated files on Steam).

I checked my logs and this is what it says when the game freezes and crashes:
