You should be able to work around this by:

  1. Press the Windows key + R
  2. Enter %appdata% within the search input and select ‘OK’
  3. Navigate to: AppData\Roaming\Fatshark
  4. Delete the entire ‘Darktide’ directory
  5. Launch Darktide as normal

You will then need to use the ‘Verify Integrity of Game Files’ option, which is accessible via the Steam client and will ensure the installation is complete.

  1. Right-click Darktide in your Steam library sidebar
  2. Select ‘Properties’
  3. Select the ‘Local Files’ tab
  4. Select the ‘Verify Integrity of Game Files’ button
  5. When complete, close and reopen Steam

NOTE: If Steam Cloud saving is enabled for Darktide, this may automatically restore the AppData and consequently cause the error to resurface. You can disable Steam Cloud Saving for Darktide via the Steam client by:

  1. Navigate to your Steam library
  2. Right-click Darktide
  3. Select ‘Properties’
  4. On the ‘General’ tab, scroll down to ‘Steam Cloud’
  5. Disable ‘Keep game saves in the Steam Cloud for Warhammer 40,000: Darktide’

I’ve same issue, tried a few things.

Deleted Appdata

un / reinstalled

Ran in compatibility mode, this allowed boot but no connection to backend.

deleted the gpu_detection.exe (guide says .dll but i dont have one?) Launcher loaded and shader install gets to 100% but nothing after.

Reinstalled GPU drivers.

At one stage i got PC does not meet minimum specs for my AMD Radeon™ Vega 8 Graphics - Never had an issue with the game before this, ran on medium settings fine.

Please help, Need to kill heretics

Thanks,
