How to Fix R.E.P.O. Stuck on Loading Screen

Players launching *R.E.P.O.* on PC are facing a common issue where the game freezes at the loading screen, preventing them from diving into the horror. While the developer, semiwork, has yet to address this problem directly, there are several effective methods players can try to resolve the issue.

Close and Reopen the Game

The simplest and often most effective solution is to close and reopen *R.E.P.O.*. This allows the game to reset and potentially resolve any temporary glitches. It's a quick fix that works more often than you might think, so it should be your first step.

Reboot the PC

If relaunching the game doesn't work, consider rebooting your PC. A fresh start can help clear out any lingering issues that might be causing the game to hang. Plus, it gives you a brief respite from the tension, allowing you to return to the game with a clearer mind.

Run R.E.P.O. as Administrator

Running *R.E.P.O.* with administrator privileges can sometimes resolve loading issues by granting the game full access to your system's resources. Here's how to do it:

• Right-click on the *R.E.P.O.* shortcut.
• Select Properties and go to the Compatibility tab.
• Check the box for "Run this program as an administrator."

Verify Game Files

Another solution is to verify the integrity of the game files through Steam. This process ensures that all necessary files are present and undamaged. Here's how to verify game files:

• Restart your PC and open Steam.
• Right-click on *R.E.P.O.* in your Steam Library or click the gear icon on its Library page.
• Select Properties from the drop-down menu.
