I would appreciate your help CK2 is my favorite game and this is impacting my ability to play it.
I have even completely wiped my drive, reinstalled Windows 10 Pro, installed Steam, and tried. I can confirm that I have disabled Ransomeware Protection entirely in Windows Security I cannot find the ability to specify a file to exclude from Ransomware protection, so I just turned it off. I can confirm that I have added all of Steam, and CK2game.exe specifically, to my Windows Security exclusions. In Windows 10 Pro, 'Windows Security' has replaced 'Windows Defender'. I have added the special 'userdir.txt' file to the same directory as CK2game.exe. I am enrolled in Steam Cloud both in general and for CK2 in particular. I have followed all troubleshooting steps provided here:. I have followed all troubleshooting steps provided here: I am using Windows 10 pro (latest updates), Steam package versions 1566431379, Steam API: v019, Built: Aug 21 2019, at 15:00:31. \Documents\Paradox Interactive\Crusader Kings II The mod name appears in the "mods" section during CK2 startup but is not selectable.
When I subscribe to any CK2 mod in the Workshop, the download starts at 0/0 B, hangs, then completes with 0 B downloaded. It is possible that this started when I updated Windows 10 with the August patches. I already reached out to Steam Support for help but they could not locate the root cause of the issue. I do not know when it stopped working but I noticed it a week ago. Mods for Stellaris appear to download and install just fine. Steam Workshop is not downloading or not installing my mods for Crusader Kings II.
