Uplay Unable To Download Game: How to Fix It in 4 Easy Steps

Uplay Unable To Download Game



Hey guys so I've been having this issue today where uplay will not download any games, the installation starts and the download is stuck at 0 bytes / 25gb for Rainbow Six Siege, I tried with Rayman origins and had the same issue. I've tried running as administrator, restarting, reinstalling uplay, nothing has worked. Has anyone had any experience with this? Pictures related. ( every other client works fine, steam, origin, etc)


Doesn't uPlay only downloads one game at a time? also unlike Steam it does suffer server issues every then and when, unless uPlay is blocked on firewall you should just wait another day for now, if you use a "free" antivirus, uninstall it, they are worthless any ways and could also be the cause of why it doesn't download.


A special important note: ensure you've set Ubisoft Connect to minimize when closed in the settings. In Gaming Mode on the Steam Deck, you need to quickly close Ubisoft Connect once you hit Play on a game, otherwise Gamescope (the SteamOS compositor) gets confused on what to display and madly flashes between the launcher and the game. A problem shared by many launchers right now. UPDATE: thanks to a comment, you can get Ubisoft Connect to auto-launch a specific game by adding uplay://launch/*gameID*/0 to the end of your Steam launch options for the app (ID list here) which gets around the flashing issue but only works for a specific game at a time.


Rainbow Six Extraction is available now for pretty much every major console/system under the sun, and Ubisoft's new live-service shooter is even available for free for Xbox Game Pass subscribers on PC and console. Although players using Game Pass on consoles and the Cloud seem to not have many issues jumping into the game, there seems to be trouble with folks trying to download Rainbow Six Extraction on PC Game Pass. There are some steps that gamers will need to follow if they want to download the three-player co-op shooter on their PC using Microsoft's subscription service.


Once the accounts have been linked, and players log in again with their Ubisoft account, another message will appear to confirm that both Rainbow Six games will appear on both of the listed accounts. Press Continue, and then go ahead and download/install Ubisoft Connect and launch it.

Select the game image, the game page will appear, on the left of the image there are various options. Under the download button there is an option to locate game's file, choose it and browse to the game folder location, selcet the folder with your game name. I did it this way. This problem didn't occour often but when it does I fixed as stated before. Hope it helps


Is anyone else having this problem. The March 2, 2022 update (date of failed download) will not download. Note after starting update in progress bar says Ubisoft Connect is unable to start your download. Please check that you have an active internet connection and sufficient space on your hard drive then try again. My internet connection is good and solid with no problems with any other connection including Uplay/Ubisoft Connect and access to the store. I have over 950GB of open hard drive and 16GB of memory.(Source)


Ubisoft announced last week that it was shutting down online connectivity for 15 games on the same date, with Liberation HD being one of them, but nothing suggested access to the game would be removed completely. "You will be unable to link Ubisoft accounts in-game or use online features," Ubisoft said of the PC version. "Additionally, the installation and access to DLC will be unavailable."


In the vast majority of cases, the solution is to properly reinstall uplay_r1_loader64.dll on your PC, to the Windows system folder. Alternatively, some programs, notably PC games, require that the DLL file is placed in the game/application installation folder.


If your game uses a launcher that downloads additional updates, do not complete this step. Doing so will replace your updated game with the base launcher, and you will then need to re-download the updates through the launcher. 2ff7e9595c
