To do that: Go to Steam Library >> Right-click on the game >> Properties >> Local Files >> Verify the integrity of game files. Once the scanning is done, try relaunching the game and check if the issue is fixed.
Run the Game as an Administrator
If you have not given the game some privileges, it might function well and create issues including game progress lost or game progress not saving. So, in this method, try running the game as an administrator.
To do this: Close the Steam app, then right-click on the Steam app and click on “Run as administrator”.
Turn OFF Antivirus
An antivirus app is important for your PC but sometimes, it prevents the game from working properly. Therefore, try turning off your antivirus app and check if that worked. For this: Open the search screen on your PC >> Type “Windows security settings” and open it >> Virus and Threat Protection >> Ransomware Protection >> and lastly turn off “Controlled Folder Access”
Reinstall the Game
If the above methods fail, your last resort is to uninstall the game completely from your system and reinstall it.
