Documents\My Games\Watch_Dogs 2\LocalStorage 🛠️ Step-by-Step Fixes for PC Users | Cause

This comprehensive troubleshooting guide walks you through the proven methods to bypass this glitch on PC, PlayStation, and Xbox consoles. 🛠️ Step-by-Step Fixes for PC Users Corrupt or Missing "My Games" Permissions | PC

| Cause | Platform | Why It Happens | |-------|----------|----------------| | | PC | Real-time scanning locks the Documents\My Games folder. The game tries to write the profile, AV says "let me scan that first," game waits, AV hangs, game waits forever. | | 2. Corrupt or Missing "My Games" Permissions | PC | Windows Update or a user permission change removed write access to the Documents folder. The game cannot create the folder. No error dialog—just infinite wait. | | 3. Cloud Save Conflict Loop | PC / All | Ubisoft Connect cloud has a partial or corrupted profile. Game tries to download it → fails → tries to create new one → cloud says "no, sync this" → loop. | | 4. Anti-Cheat / BattlEye Hang | PC | WD2’s BattlEye (if enabled) attempts to validate the profile. A slow network or blocked port causes BattlEye to time out silently. | | 5. Unicode Character in Windows Username | PC | If your Windows username has an emoji, accented character (é, ü, ñ), or non-Latin script, the file path breaks. WD2 uses old file I/O that chokes on UTF-8. | | 6. Corrupt Save Data from Previous Install | All | Leftover registry keys or hidden .save files from a prior uninstall confuse the profile creation routine. |
