If you're getting an error from Steam that says "corrupt content files," here's a few things you can try:
- Verify your game cache.
- Right click Rec Room in your Steam Library, go to the Local Files tab, and click "Verify Integrity of Game Files." Then try to launch the game.
- This could be the result of your anti-virus software quarantining game files. To test if this is the case:
- Temporarily disable your anti-virus. If this works, please consider whitelisting the Rec Room executables, located in the installation folder. These are "recroom.exe" and "recroom_release.exe" in our case.
- Re-install the game by right clicking Rec Room in your Steam Library and selecting "Delete Local Content." Then re-download the game and attempt to launch it.
- Restart the steam client, then try verifying your game cache again.
