AgeCheck – Fix Age of Empires 2 Errors in Seconds

If you’re trying to relive your childhood with the classic Age of Empires II: The Age of Kings and The Conquerors Expansion, but the game just won’t start, you’re not alone.

Maybe you’ve seen:

• “An error occurred while trying to start the game.”
• “Could not initialise.”
• Campaigns missing from the menu.
• Random crashes that make no sense.

I kept hearing the same frustrations from players over and over.
On my YouTube channel (GregSteinAoE2), people constantly reach out:

“My game’s corrupt.”
“Files are missing.”
“What do I do?”

So I built AgeCheck.

What is AgeCheck?

AgeCheck is a file integrity checker and repair tool made for the classic Age of Empires 2 (Age of Kings + The Conquerors).

The game has 1,202 files in total.
This tool scans all of them in seconds.

It checks what’s missing.
It fixes what’s broken.
It repairs mismatched files.

And if a critical file is gone, it pulls the right version from the internet.

Why AgeCheck works

• Fast scan – 1,202 files verified under 5 seconds.
• Online repair – pulls only what’s needed, nothing more.
• Registry Fix – Repairs your registry entries.
• Safe by design – it doesn’t store or ship the game assets, it just fixes them.
• Common issues solved – from startup errors to missing campaigns.

How it helps you

Instead of reinstalling the game again and again, AgeCheck gives you a direct fix.

• No guessing which file is corrupt.
• No trawling reddit or aok heaven forums for random patches.
• No wasted hours.

You click.
It scans.
It repairs.
GLHF 🙂

To conclude..

I hope this tool helps get back to the game, and before you hop in a game versus AI.. Did you watch my 1V7 Hardest AI match?

Happy gaming on AoE2 🙂
