Error: Pak file corrupt or tampered with

Game mode: Online private
Type of issue: Bug-Error
Server type: PvE
Region: NA


This is happening to me now with the most recent update they launched.
I have never had this issue with loading the game, and the error comes as a double
popup window, even though i only loaded it once.

Verifying files for me, nothing is wrong nothing is reacquired or anything.
This isnt a steam issue, its more then likely a conan update that botched
things, an it only happens to catch some folks at random like myself and
the topic creator.

Please look into this! Im a streamer, an i was supposed to stream the game
tomorrow (saturday 3pm pst USA ) but apparently looks like im going to have
to reinstall it entirely in order to make that a reality because i doubt im going to
get an answer in response within a proper amount of time to fix it an meet my
streaming deadline.

I play on a unofficial server. This server didnt have mods, and now it does but
it ran just fine both before an after mods were installed - i havent played since
the update an today was going to be the first 5/10/2019 @ 10pm pst USA


Please provide a step-by-step process of how the bug can be reproduced. The more details you provide us with the easier it will be for us to find and fix the bug:

  1. Update game to recent update
  2. Launch game
  3. Get the opening cinema story while dbl windows popup in the middle screaming about "Pak file corrupt or tampered with please verify integrity of files
  4. error window closed, game immediately shuts down
