How to Verify Game Integrity

Steps to Verify Game Files on Steam:

    • Open Steam

      • Launch the Steam client on your computer.

      • Log in if necessary.

    • Go to Your Game Library

      • Click on "Library" at the top of the Steam window.

    • Select the Game You Want to Verify

      • Right-click the game in your library.

      • Choose "Properties" from the drop-down menu.

    • Open the "Installed Files" Tab

      • In the Properties window, click on "Installed Files" (or "Local Files" in older versions).

    • Click "Verify Integrity of Game Files"

      • Click the button labeled "Verify integrity of game files..."

      • Steam will now check for missing or corrupted files.

    • Wait for the Process to Complete

      • A progress bar will appear.

      • This may take a few minutes, depending on the game size.

    • Restart the Game (If Needed)

      • Once verification is done, Steam will either:

        • Confirm all files are valid (no issues found).

        • Download missing/corrupted files (if any were detected).

      • Close and reopen the game to see if the issue is resolved.
