1.0.241 Game does not start anymore.
After the latest update i can no longer start the game, whenever i try it to start it it simply "crashes" to desktop with an error.

Tiger read request doesn't belong to this archive (was dlc=11 spec=0, expected dlc=108 spec=0) : >rq:û

Previous update worked fine. What is this and how do i fix it?

I already verified and re-installed the entire game, uninstalled and re-installed all DLC's. Nothing.

The last patch involved a data restructuring for a decrease in file-size. As Steam synced your data it might have left some files out of the process. The best course of action to rule this out is the following:
  • Right-click on Shadow of the Tomb Raider in your Steam library and select properties.
  • Select the 'local files' tab in the window that appears.
  • Select 'browse local files'. This will open windows explorer at the game's install location. (If you want to help us narrow down why you're getting the error, can you post a screenshot of the files in this folder?)
  • In Steam, still on the local files tab, select 'uninstall game'
  • Delete any files that remain in the folder. Save data is not stored in this location so your progress is safe.
  • Reinstall the game, and perform a Steam file integrity verification when it is done.
  • Start the game again.

Please let us know if the game is still failing to start after these steps.
