Xoran, by googling your drivers version for your Intel HD 4400 (20.19.15.4531) first thing comes up is that apparently lots of people had problems with this driver, mostly with HD 4600 but also some with your card, once Microsoft pushed an update to Windows 10 64bit. I wonder if your drivers were been updated as well around the time you had the issue.
Assuming this is your operating system, but it could be a good idea even if it's not, my suggestion is to check the website of your computer manufacturer (or motherboard manufacturer if it's an integrated video solution) to see if there's an updated graphic driver.
If there isn't, you could try to install previous drivers.

I already made it work :)
What worked was deleting what i remember as the main.user.cfg file, then reinstalling Space Engine ;)

Try this stuff if you have problems with black boxes around stuff :) :
  • Delete all addons you have
  • Delete main.user.cfg file, located in the config file, inside the SpaceEngine file.
  • Delete the whole SpaceEngine folder, then reinstalling SpaceEngine (this removes all your saved addons, screenshots and addons)

Hello i have problem
Delete the 'main-user.cfg' in the 'config' directory. This may be enough.

I have had the same problems, but after installing the game again it still doesn't work. I've done everything you all said (deleting main-user.cfg), but it still happens again and again. If you could find a solution that would be amazing.

Post your 'se.log'. It is located in the 'system' directory of SpaceEngine.

I have the same problem except I'm missing an Eng text file. I've done everything you guys said and nothing worked. I have completely deleted space engine and the installer and I still have black boxes. Can someone please help me?

Could you please attach your se.log file which is located in your SpaceEngine/system/ folder?

I see you also posted that question in chat. I think I know the problem, since other people are getting this too, in which case I helped one guy.
So, the problem is that you probably don't have patch e. If you don't have it, download it from here: http://spaceengine.org/download/spaceengine
Use any mirror. It will fix it surely.
If that is not the problem, try copying other cfg file from another user. I currently can't attach it, but if someone can, please do!
I hope that this will help you, try some stuff, experiment, and see yourself! :)

!ATTENTION!
I see that everyone is having trouble with something I had a long time ago so let me walk everyone through it! :D You guys can just reinstall spaceengine and rename the "spaceengine" folder in the .exe when you install it, to something else.
