Hello everyone, welcome to the Ultimate Horizon Support Thread. I will be updating this thread as frequently as I can and when new updates w/ errors come out. I am sure you have already downloaded Horizon because you are here now, but if not, it is located here. Thanks for the great new page also Austin! TooMuchSweat was recently removed from owner of this thread because he did not want to handle it anymore. Then Sam got the spot of owner. After there was an issue, I took the thread over (Pavman).

2.0: Horizon Errors
2.1
There can be many reasons why you get this error when loading Horizon.
To fix this error, simply disable your anti-virus/firewall as they are usually blocking Horizon's connection to the internet. Here's a tutorial on how to disable your firewall. If you need help disabling your anti-virus, post in this thread, or make a thread, or PM one of us, Horizon Pro's.
1. First off, click your start orb, .
2. You should now see something like this:
3. Click on Control Panel:
4. You should then see something like this:
This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 856x604.
If you don't, go to up to View By: then select Small Icons, .
5. Once you're there, proceed down to where it says Windows Firewall, .
6. Click on that then you should see this:
This image has been resized. Click this bar to view the full image. The original image is sized 853x473.
7. Navigate over to Turn Windows Firewall on or off,
8. Click on that, then you should see this:
9. On both, Home or work (private) network location settings and Public network location settings, set them to Turn Windows Firewall off, .
10. Run Horizon and you should be in online mode!
Note: You can enable these settings once more when not using Horizon, just be sure to disable them while you are.
2.2
This is an easy fix and a pretty common issue, all you have to do is re-download/install Horizon. That is located here: XboxMB - Xbox Message Boards - Horizon
2.3
If you are unable to drag and drop a file into Horizon, here is a simple fix. First go down to the Start Menu, type "UAC" and hit enter. Once you're there, you should see this:
Simply drag the bar all the down to the bottom:
Simply hit "OK" and you should be good.
2.4
When you've finished modding your Profile or Gamesave are you getting this error?
If you are, all you have to do is restart Horizon and "Run as Administrator". If that doesn't work and your loading your Save or Profile directly from the Device, extract it to your Desktop and mod it. Once you've done, save it and transfer it back to your Device. Make sure you overwrite, or it won't mod be modded.
2.5
It is usually a .NET Framework error.
If you have .NET Framework installed I suggest using this tool .NET Framework Clean-Up Tool.
I suggest uninstall every version of .NET installed then reinstalling.
Download .NET Framework 3.5 required to run Horizon - .NET Framework 3.5
If all of that fails, try to navigate to C:\Users\name\AppData\Local\Daring_Development_Inc .\Horizon.exe_StrongName_oj3dekulwqzgsr0yopf0ih1k4 ipdntld\2.5.10.1\user.config and then delete that.
2.6
If you have this is because you've modded too many Profiles or Gamesaves. This isn't permanent and can be removed by an Administrator or Developer easily. To get this removed, post in the Ask The Staff - http://www.xboxmb.com/forum/51-ask-staff/ Please DO NOT PM the Developers as they get enough PM's.
3.0: Tool Errors
3.1
Halo: Reach Ammo And Shields Wont Work
Make sure after you mod your gamesave you click save. This rehash/resigns it so it will work correctly. Some missions, not all but some, require you to get to a checkpoint for the mods to work. Also during some missions if you are at a cutscene your ammo and shields will return to normal. You must save and quit then remod it if you wish to continue. The same thing applies to Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST.
3.2
If Horizon's Device Explorer is not reading that you have your HDD, MC or USB plugged in,
try running as administrator.
If Horizon still isn't picking up your Device, format your USB on your Computer, and reconfigure it to your Console and try loading it again.
3.3
If this happens you should first go to avatar editor and save. This will help the years sync with the servers. Also the years may reset if you recover your Gamertag for any reason. Your years played will not always show up for other people. It depends on if it has synced with the Xbox Live servers.
3.4
Delete your account on your Xbox 360, recover and remod it. If it still corrupts post a thread with the corrupted profile.
3.5
Recover your Profile, unlock all the Achievements you want, then once you've done. Go to Custermize Avatar on your Console (make sure your signed into LIVE if you want them to sync!) then click Save & Exit. This is the best way for Gamerscore to sync to Xbox LIVE.
3.6
If you are unable to find gamerpictures for certain games or it just keeps searching then it means Horizon currently doesn't have any gamerpictures for that game. Make sure you are searching for the Title ID.

Uninstall Avast! and it'll work fine. I suggest using Avira.
I contacted Avast! about this and they haven't responded yet.

Check your task manager for horizon .exe. And I believe there was a problem with avast real time scanning or something like that. Ill find the thread really quick.
Please try to disable Avast by going on Task Manager, then services. Then get the list in alphabetical order, then stop Avast! Antivirus service from running. If this still doesn't work, please uninstall Avast, and use another Anti-Virus.
It worked with Avast on my other laptop but not my new one
Avast is being wierd, if you've had it installed before using Horizon, or before a big update, Horizon will work. If you've recently installed it, and not used Horizon, it will not work. :\
* Type of Problem : Not Loading,, Nothing Happening after double clicking
* OS : Windows 7 x86 (32-bit)
* Antivirus/Firewall : None. Added exception to windows firewall, still not working.
* Errors : None
* Extra Information : "Horizon Beta.exe" pops in the task manager. Memory size starts from 2k and ascedns to 30~40k in 4~5 seconds. Then closes.
i think horizon staff members need to solve the problem and them make a new version to fix it. this is getting way out of control
It's easier said that done. Horizon Developers, do not know the exact problem, so I doubt they know what to fix. I've now emailed Avast to see if they have any information about why Horizon is blocked by their anti virus. In the mean time, try and think what you could do to help this situation!
