Stona_WT 72,761 Report post Posted October 28, 2021 Option no.1 Please click RMB on War Thunder in your Steam library. Select Properties. Select Local Files. Click on Browse. Search for launcher.exe and open it. Click on launcher settings in top right corner of the launcher. Unmark checkbox Auto Updates. Restart Steam client. Wait for Steam to update War Thunder. Option no.2 Pause the game download in Steam. Find the War Thunder folder, and rename it (e.g. "War Thunder1"). Uninstall War Thunder in Steam library. Rename the folder back to its original name. Find War Thunder in Steam client, and click "Install". Steam will verify files, and download the missing ones, if necessary. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
