starting the game takes too long

  • i have SoT via steam and i recently changed it from one drive to another and now it won't start, i get a black screen for around 10 minutes and then get a popup from steam and then it just boots up quickly, i already redownloaded it fully, i changed a setting in my disk so that it doesn't index anymore, i did everything that i was told on reddit and it still won't work, how do i fix this?

  • Did you manually just move all the files?

    Or did you uninstall and reinstall the game to the drive you wanted?

    Edit: I see you redownloaded it, but did you redownload it to your main drive then moved it manually? Because if so, you need to manually download it to that drive because moving the files can cause corruption.

    It also could be the case of a slow hard drive / SSD, because I like to install all of my main games to my ssd for fast speeds

  • @tristymp4 i deleted it via steam and then downloaded it on the right drive, and before it was on a external hdd and now on internal, before loud times were logner so it's a faster hdd but still i get the black creen for 8-9 minutes
