Known Issue: We have become aware of some reports of the launcher incorrectly stating that DLC installs are corrupted. This is a purely visual bug, and we are currently investigating a fix.

All the best!  

Is it that you can never hit the PLAY button then?

If so, try a Steam Flush Config

Did you mean to post this in Bug Reports, perhaps?

[Dev Team] 3.6.0 'Orion' Released (checksum 0028)

Try again!  

clockworkhound said: Same here....all DLC say corrupted in launcher. I never played with mods and I have uninstalled and reinstalled many times in attempts to fix the issue.

As above, you can ignore the warning and your DLC will still be enabled. This is a false positive in the launcher the DLC is not actually corrupted.  

Hello! We're looking into fixing this error message issue, but I've been unable to reproduce any issues actually accessing the content.

Please double check that any mods are disabled (seriously 100% check) and ingame that your DLC is unticked (marking is as not available) in the new game screen.
Cheers!  

Having checked I see this game tells you if a save is Ironman, but not specifically if it is achievement-worthy or not, unfortunately.

I know nothing about the content of save game files, I'm sorry. User Mods may be able to help with that. What I can say is that if you rename them to end in .zip you can then unzip them to get the plain text files that make them up.  

Your problem reads like an issue with Steam cloud sync, not the game as such. Steam only syncs cloud games up to the cloud when you exit the game, not as you play - if that process did not complete on PC2 before you loaded the save on PC1, exactly what you describe will occur.  

I don't know what could cause this to you either. Does that save show as achivements being gettable still?  

Please try the following:

- unsubscribe from all mods in BOTH the Steam Workshop and the Paradox mod site mods.paradoxplaza.com
- delete the folder Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mod/
- delete the file Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/mods_registry.json (if present)
- delete the file Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/launcher-v2.sqlite (if present)
- run the game up and check the launcher is okay with no mod or other errors
- subscribe to a few mods

- run the game up and see if those mods are now available to you.

I hope that does it for you!  

I take it this is not the Steam edition, as I see you only appear to own HOI4 there?

Is it perhaps on Gamepass, or the Xbox console?  

I have no experience on the Deck, I barely even know what one is! But if it basically works like a Linux machine then Steam ought to sync save games, yes.

Does Steam on the Deck should the cloud is up to date?

What happens when you save to. cloud on the Deck? I assume it has no local save capability.

Do you see those saves here?

If the Windows user Documents folder has moved onto OneDrive, and the Windows variable points there, then that's where our launcher needs to get access to.

Right click on Documents in the left column of File Explorer, just under This PC there. Go to properties, location. What does it say in there?  

Agujhan said: "cannot access file C:\Users\whatever\OneDrive\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Stellaris\launcher-v2.sqlite

Is your Windows user Documents folder actually on OneDrive? If so is that facility on, running and syncing okay?

And do you actually want your documents held on MS's servers?  

Please report this in the Orion beta thread, thanks.  

If you revert to the current production version of the game, does this still happen now?  

Please try this:

- uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows "Apps and features" utility, if still present.

Delete the following folders if still present:

- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

- exit the Steam app entirely
- run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user
- run the game from the PLAY button in Steam


IF that doesn't help, in this folder are some .log files:
C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
Please attach them here.  

This sounds like a Steam issue. Are you getting any error or something?

Have you put steam.exe , stellaris.exe and paradox launcher.exe in your firewall exceptions list?  

Sorry then, I have nothing else to suggest here. Please contact the mod authors about this.

Good luck!
