How to fix COD Warzone Dev Error 6066?

Fatal or Dev Error 6066 in Warzone is usually caused by an issue with the graphics settings, hardware, or software of your computer. To fix this error, make sure that you do the following:

Fix #1: Restart your computer.

Before you do any aggressive troubleshooting, you want to ensure that you’ve refreshed the system by rebooting your computer. To do this, just shut down the PC and unplug it from the power source for about a minute. This should clear the RAM and hopefully get rid of memory bugs that may be causing this particular error.

Fix #2: Check for updates.

Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Warzone players may encounter the Dev Error 6066 if they’re running outdated Windows Operating System versions.

Go into Windows Settings>Update & Security>Windows Update to manually check for any system update you haven’t installed at this time.

Fix #3: Install graphics drivers.

Another simple way to fix Dev Error 6066 in Call of Duty Warzone and Modern Warfare is to install the latest graphics drivers. If you installed the special software that comes with your graphics card such as the NVIDIA GeForce Experience (for NVIDIA GPU), that should take care of your graphics drivers at this time. However, you can also manually check by opening Device Manager and updating your Display adapter from there.

Fix #4: Use DirectX 11.

COD Warzone and Modern Warfare are designed to use DirectX 12 but you can try to force it to use DirectX 11. Some people were able to fix Dev Errors on Warzone by using this workaround. Here’s what you need to do:

  1. Open the Blizzard Battle.net client.
  2. Select COD Modern Warfare > Options.
  3. Select Additional Command Line Arguments and type “-d3d11 in the  command line.
  4. Run the game again and see if the error code is now gone.

Fix #5: Don’t overclock the GPU.

For some players, the Dev Error 6066 only occurs when they overclock their graphics card. If you are one of them, try to see if you can fix the issue by reverting the clock speed of your GPU to normal.

Fix #6: Disable other apps.

Some programs may interfere with some applications or games. Try to close all applications including your security software or antivirus when Call Of Duty Warzone is running to see if one of them is the reason for this error.

If you’re using applications with overlays such as Discord, Spotify, or any other similar applications, make sure that you close them too. The idea is to see if the error returns when only the game is running on the system.

Fix #7: Use PC Screen Only.

If you’re using more than one monitor on your PC, make sure that you’re using the right screen to play the game. To check, here’s what you need to do:
