[2023] Cannot load save game due to "Missing DLC"

Do they show in our launcher's DLC tab as enabled?

If so I have no real explanation for them showing as missing in that save, except some sort of save game file corruption.

Can you start and play a new campaign with them okay? And save, exit and reload that new save?  

Please do a full **clean** re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "uninstall" in Steam-CK3
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/CK3 AND Documents/Paradox Interactive/CK3 folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- add CK3.exe to the exceptions list of your antivirus app; ESPECIALLY if you have Windows Defender, add it to the Ransomware "Apps Allowed Through" list.
- start the game with no mods active and test

In particular make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam CK3 or Documents CK3 locations, before installing again.


That should do it for you!  

It's hard to see how that's possible, to be honest. Are you 100% sure there were no files or folders left under the Steam Documents CK3 location in particular, before installing again?

Make a new Windows user on this computer and log into Windows with that. Does it work there?
