can't reinstall , error on build 18 (content file block)

specneck · November 2016

I have come across some laggy issue while loading some terrain in game , so i try the remove cache file solution , seems no effect , so i uninstall from steam amd reinstall the gane . While the last minute the steam show 100% download but a "content file block" pop up , and when running the game it's says "an error occured while updating Subnautica (content file block)" and a file name show up "X:\......... Subnautica\SNUnmanageData\build18\batch-object -9-12-12.txt" .

I went to the position and check the .txt , it's seem broken , and i can't open it or remove it , and uninstall the game can't remove that either .
Try to use software unlock to remove the file is also no effect .
Anyone have any solution?

Yeah, run chkdsk c: /f

(replace c with your subnautica drive letter)

It will probably say it can't lock the drive, and ask if you want to schedule for next restart, if so, then 4press y and enter, then restart.

Worked for me. (File system corruption from a power outage in my case.)

Then verify local file integrity with Steam.

EDIT: mmmkay, upon thinking for a sec, you probably need to run it in an administrator cmd prompt, so:

Click Start

Type cmd

right-click "Command Prompt" and then click "Run as administrator"

then do the chkdsk c: /f

and press enter, and if it asks to schedule, hit y and then enter

Then after it's done, type exit and enter, then restart

If it needs to restart and you wanna feel like a boss, then after typing y and enter, type

shutdown -f -r -t 00

and enter

Which means, shutdown, forced (don't let programs stall the process, so make sure anything you have open is saved), type of shutdown is restart, and the time in seconds until shutdown is 00
