From what i gather parsing some older posts from Vermintide- this is an issue with the launcher, but i seem to lack a way to bypass the launcher like i could from those games.

@Spazhero sorry to hear this. Just to check, have you tried any of our Darktide launcher solutions?

I have tried ensuring the permissions are consistent (They already were), i have tried deleting the app data and verifying, I have checked the firewall, deleting GPU detection, repairing the.net framework. nothing seems to have worked

Thanks for the update! though I’m sorry to hear that nothing has helped so far.

Will tag in @FatsharkJulia in case they have any further suggestions here - though they are currently away until Feb 6th. Thank you for your patience in the meantime.

Hi! Could you ensure the .NET Framework is enabled in Windows by:

  1. Press Win + R
  2. Enter optionalfeatures
  3. Ensure .NET Framework 4.8 Advanced Services is enabled

.net framework 4.8 advanced services is, indeed, enabled.

Sorry I missed your reply - has there been any change since?

no worries- currently this is what error pops up when i try to launch it:

I’d recommend doing a complete re-install of Darktide if you haven’t already, as it seems some dependencies are missing here.

I have done an uninstall and reinstall via the steam launcher with no change sadly- is there another step im missing maybe?

Just to double check, are you sure it is? If only some parts of it are enabled the checkbox will be blue but with a - through it instead of a checkmark.

It’s easy to miss, especially if you have a high res monitor with no scaling enabled leaving all the icons tiny
