Before we start troubleshooting, please make sure that you have a stable network connection. Also, restart your computer to close some background applications that take up too much of your CPU usage. Then proceed with the steps below.

1. Restart your network router

Since “Yorker 43 Good Wolf” is a network-related error in Black Ops Cold War, you can try restarting your network router to clear the cache and re-assign your IP address.

To do so:

  1. Power off your router first, then unplug the router.

2. Update your network driver

If your Black Ops Cold War keeps crashing with the “Yorker 43 Good Wolf” error, one of the first things you should do is to update your network driver, since an up-to-date network driver always ensures the best network performance and fewer bugs.

To update your network driver, here’s what you can do (please note that the following screenshots are taken on Windows 11, but the instructions work on Windows 10 as well):

  1. On your keyboard, press the Windows key and X at the same time, select Device Manager.
  2. Double-click to expand the category Network adapters. Then right-click your network driver and click Update driver (the name of the device can be different on your computer).
  3. Then click Search automatically for updated driver software.
  4. Wait for Windows to find the latest driver available for you.
  5. When the driver update is done, restart your computer for the change to take effect.
  6. Then check and see if the problem is fixed.

If Windows says that it’s already found the latest driver for you, so no newer drivers are found, then you should consider updating your network driver in a different way with the help of Driver Techie.
