PC players launching *R.E.P.O.* may find themselves trapped on the loading screen, preventing gameplay. While developer semiwork hasn't yet addressed this, several troubleshooting steps can often resolve the problem.

Simple Fixes: Close and Reopen, or Reboot

The first steps are the simplest: Try closing and reopening *R.E.P.O.*. This often resolves minor glitches. If that fails, rebooting your PC can clear temporary system issues that might be interfering with the game.

Run as Administrator

Granting *R.E.P.O.* administrator privileges can sometimes improve performance and access. To do this:

  1. Right-click the *R.E.P.O.* shortcut.
  2. Select Properties.
  3. Navigate to the Compatibility tab.
  4. Check "Run this program as an administrator."

Verify Game Files (Steam)

If you're playing *R.E.P.O.* through Steam, verifying the game files ensures all game assets are correctly installed and up-to-date. Here's how:

  1. Restart your PC and open Steam.
  2. Right-click *R.E.P.O.* in your Steam Library (or click the gear icon).
  3. Select Properties.
  4. Go to the Local Files tab and click "Verify integrity of game files."

Note: Some files might fail verification; this is often normal and can be ignored.
