Fix for Sorry Something Went Wrong Error

so I pre-ordered the game on steam and then encountered this error I fixed it via the following

note: this is without reinstalling your original steam client but will be a bit of a semi work around

Step 1: so first go to your steam installation mine is as such C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam
right click and copy your steam.exe application file inside of this folder

Step 2: make another steam file folder outside of the original one just add a letter number etc doesn't matter which, paste the copy of the steam.exe application inside of the new steam folder

Step 3: make sure you are logged out any applications of steam and then run this copy it is going to essentially make a second steam installation for now we have to do this

Step 4: go to your C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common (aka the original steam folder and right click on the Resident Evil 4 folder there and cut it

Step 5: in the new steam folder there won't be a common folder make it and right click and paste inside of it now the transfer will be complete.

Step 6: open up steam in the new folder with the same steam.exe application file we copied over before (make sure your original copy of the program is not running yet.)

Step 7: install the game (it will auto detect the files after a bit you wont have to actually reinstall the game just have to do this process to play it.) make sure its location is set to the new steam folder we made.....give it a few minutes and when it finishes it will detect the game installation rather than have to reinstall it all over again.

Step 8: Have fun you can play the game now.

@M1keSpb yeah if a reshade is causing the error this shouldn't fix it as this is for the unedited game files.

[M1keSpb]

This dont resolved my problem, but this advice helps me "goran_rayman: Okay, found my problem. Turns out if you're using a Reshade, the game won't start anymore. If you use one, delete dxgi.dll and you will be fine!"

[LordHotspur]

@Nier hmm the guide can be somewhat complicated maybe you made a mistake at some part in it by accident or maybe another program is interfering.

bro can you make a video about this cause like i've trying to get this thing fixed for 6 hours and it's all still not working. it would really help if i can get a video explanation on how to actually do it step by step, that is if you bother to help a single person.

@goob has to be left unfortunately

[goob]

After it's done with the re-install process, can I move it back or does it need to be left in the new folder?
