Key notes

  • You're probably already aware that GeForce Now is a subscription-based service that allows you to stream games right on your PC. 
  • Whereas the software works well most of the time, users have recently complained of getting locked out of their accounts.
  • The error in question is 0xc192000e and in this article, we look at some of its triggers and possible resolutions.

Users are getting kicked out of their GeForce Now accounts and the error code 0xc192000e is displayed on their screens. This is a big problem because it means that you will not be able to play any games or watch any videos from your account.

Gamers who have been experiencing the issue say that they’ve been unable to play the game. It’s not uncommon for gaming software to have glitches as sometimes even the popular Xbox app fails to launch. If you are in the same boat, below we discuss some potential fixes.

Why does GeForce Now say error 0xc192000e? 

If you’re getting the GeForce Now error 0xc192000e, it could be due to one or more of the following reasons:

  • Server maintenance – The top reason why most users are getting kicked out of their GeForce Now accounts is that Nvidia had earlier announced plans for a server upgrade.
  • Expired subscription – If you have not yet updated your subscription, you may encounter the GeForce Now error code 0xc192000e.
  • Not using VPNs – Although not all games require a VPN to play,  they are recommended as they significantly improve gameplay and improve ping.
  • Outdated app– In some cases, if you’ve not updated your GeForce Now app, it may not be optimized to meet the requirements of the games you’re playing hence the frequent errors.

It is important to note that the GeForce Now error 0xc192000e can manifest itself in various ways such as:

  • GeForce Now not listing all the games in your library.
  • Automatic login is disabled and you have to keep logging in every time you want to play.
  • Getting asked to subscribe even though you have an active subscription.
  • Your GeForce Now member status is unavailable.
  • Games are no longer loading in 4K resolution and 1080p is the maximum quality.

How can I fix GeForce Now error code 0xc192000e?

Before you attempt any of the below solutions, perform these preliminary checks first:

  • Ensure you have an active subscription.
  • Check the GeForce Now official status page to see if there’s a server downtime or scheduled maintenance.
  • Try a different server and check if the issue persists.
  • Check that you’re running the latest version of the GeForce Now app.

1. Use a VPN

A VPN is basically a secure tunnel that encrypts your internet connection and sends it through another server. Using a VPN is not only beneficial in enhancing your gaming experience but also allows you to change your location. 

Some users who updated their locations when they switched to a different server in a different location were able to regain access to their accounts.

2. Switch to the browser version

Sometimes, the issue may be the GeForce Now app, and switching to a browser could fix the problem. A few users were able to bypass the error while using a browser but report that the response time was extremely slow.

That’s why we recommend you go for the Opera browser because it is fast and has the best features for gaming. As an added advantage, it also comes with a built-in VPN, so you can browse the web privately and securely.

3. Update your GeForce drivers

It’s good practice to keep your drivers always updated to avoid any compatibility issues or other errors that may crop up from time to time.

You can check out our comprehensive article on various ways to download the GeForce drivers and once they have been updated, check to see if the error code still appears.

4. Reinstall the GeForce Now app 

If the problem is your GeForce Now app that has failed to register updates, try uninstalling it to get rid of any corrupt files that may have accumulated over time. Also, don’t forget to remove any software leftovers as reinstalling it again could still bring up similar problems. 

Once you have successfully removed every trace of the program, proceed to download GeForce Now and check if the problem persists.

5. Contact support

If the above methods fail to yield desired results and you’re still getting error code 0xc192000e, it may be time to contact NVIDIA support. 

It’s possible they’re not yet aware of the issue or it’s an isolated problem that’s facing a section of users. Nevertheless, reporting the issue is one step closer to getting the problem resolved.

If GeForce Now is doing a server upgrade, there’s nothing you can do but wait. While you wait, we recommend checking out offline PC games that you can play to keep you entertained.
