The chilling world of *R.E.P.O.* offers a unique horror experience unlike *Resident Evil* or *Silent Hill*. However, some players are encountering a frustrating issue: the game getting stuck on the loading screen. This guide outlines several solutions to get you back into the terrifying action.

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.
Restarting the Game and Your PC
The simplest solution is often the most effective. First, try closing and reopening *R.E.P.O.*. If that fails, rebooting your PC can clear temporary system issues that might be interfering with the game. This also gives you a moment to catch your breath before returning to the scares!
Run as Administrator
Granting *R.E.P.O.* administrator privileges can sometimes resolve loading screen issues. This allows the game full system access, potentially smoothing out performance. To do this:
- Right-click the *R.E.P.O.* shortcut.
- Select "Properties."
- Navigate to the "Compatibility" tab.
- Check "Run this program as an administrator."
Verify Game Files (Steam)
If you purchased *R.E.P.O.* through Steam, verifying the game's files can ensure all necessary components are present and undamaged. Here's how:
- Restart your PC and open Steam.
- Right-click *R.E.P.O.* in your Steam Library (or click the gear icon).
- Select "Properties."
- Go to the "Local Files" tab.
- Click "Verify integrity of game files."
Note: Some files may fail verification—this is often normal and doesn't necessarily indicate a problem.
