The latest NBA 2K game was released on September 8th for all major gaming platforms devices like PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC. This time, the game has some cool new stuff – ProPLAY which takes real NBA videos and turns them into in-game action. That means you can experience NBA moments in a whole new way while playing the game. Unfortunately, many players have run into several issues and technical glitches from day one. One of the recent errors reported by many NBA 2K24 gamers is the ‘UserData corruption’ error. The exact error message reads – “UserData file has been corrupted and is unable to be loaded.” Are you also receiving the same error message? Don’t worry. In this guide, we are going to discuss why this error appears and how you can fix it with some quick workarounds.
How to Fix NBA 2K24 ‘UserData Corruption’ Error
The “UserData” Corruption error typically triggers the removal of allocated storage space on your HDD or SSD, which is usually allocated for game updates and patches. Thankfully, there are a few things you can try to fix.
1. First of all, make sure that the game data is correctly downloaded on your system. Here is what you need to do:
– Load the game.
– Select the Play Now option. Do NOT head into a game.
– And stay on that menu.
However, if you are receiving this error on your PS4, the 2K Games support page suggests leaving your console in ‘Rest Mode’ while the data is downloading.
After some time, you will see a notification in yellow text at the bottom left of your screen. It will ask you to go back to the main menu. When you do that, your game will be completely updated, and any saved data you have will be put back in place. Here is how you can put your system in rest mode:
– Go to the function screen >> Power >> Enter Rest Mode.
– Then select Power >> Enter Rest Mode on the quick menu.
– Press and hold down the power button until the system beeps.
2. If that doesn’t work too, your last resort is to reach out to the support team by creating a ticket through the official 2K website.
That’s everything you can try to fix NBA 2K24 ‘UserData corruption’ error.
