Hi there! I see that your Knives Out app keeps loading endlessly even though your internet connection is stable. That can be puzzling! To get a better idea, can you tell me if you see any specific message on the screen while it’s loading? Also, have you tried closing the app completely and restarting your Windows 10 PC before reopening it?

Meanwhile, here’s a step-by-step approach we can try to resolve this:

1. Restart and Network Reset
- Restart your PC fully, not just closing the app.
- Next, try unplugging your modem/router from power for about 30 seconds and plug it back in to refresh the network connection.

2. Clear App Cache or Temp Files
Sometimes leftover temporary files can cause loading issues. Here’s how:
- Press Windows + R, type %temp% and press Enter.
- Delete any files related to Knives Out if you see any (or clear unnecessary files here).
- You could also try clearing any cache folder the game might create—sometimes located in Documents or AppData.

3. Run the App as Administrator
- Right-click the Knives Out shortcut or executable.
- Select “Run as administrator” to give it proper permissions.

4. Check Firewall and Antivirus Settings
- Sometimes security software blocks game access or files downloading.
- Temporarily disable your firewall or antivirus and try launching the app again. Make sure to enable them afterward.

5. Check for App Updates or Server Status
- Ensure your Knives Out app is fully updated.
- Also, sometimes the issue can be with their servers or patch downloads getting stuck (“Fetching patch list files” stuck at 99% has been reported). Waiting or checking the official support channels can help confirm this.

If you have already tried any of these, please let me know which ones, and we can dig deeper or try other fixes like reinstalling the app or analyzing network settings specifically on your Windows 10 system.

Does any of this make sense so far? If you want, I can walk you through any particular step.

i kept reopening the app and always kept loading, just loading. i thought the problm was my internet

Thanks for sharing that you keep reopening the Knives Out app but it just stays stuck on loading, and you thought it might be your internet. That helps clarify the issue.

Since restarting the app repeatedly didn’t fix it, and you suspect your internet, let's rule out the common causes step-by-step:

1. Confirm Internet Stability
Try opening a webpage or streaming a video on your Windows 10 WebKit browser to verify your internet connection is solid during the game load.

2. Close Background Apps
Press Ctrl + Shift + Esc to open Task Manager, and end any unnecessary apps— especially those consuming CPU or RAM heavily. Sometimes background apps interfere with game launching.

3. Run as Administrator
Close Knives Out completely, right-click its shortcut or executable, and select “Run as administrator.” This can help if permissions are an issue.

4. Disable Firewall/Antivirus Temporarily
Temporarily disable your firewall or antivirus software as they can sometimes block game files or connections. Remember to turn them back on after testing.

5. Clear Temporary Files
Press Windows + R, type %temp%, then hit Enter. Delete unneeded files there. Some users reported lingering temp data causing freezes.

6. Check for Updates
Make sure Knives Out is updated to the latest version. If it’s stuck on loading while fetching files or updates, wait a few minutes or check official social media or forums for server issues.

7. Try the Lock/Unlock Trick
There’s a known workaround from users: open the app and if it freezes, lock your PC (Windows + L), then unlock it. Sometimes that nudges the app to continue loading.

8. Reinstall the Game
If none of these work, uninstall Knives Out completely, restart your PC, then reinstall the game fresh.

If you’ve already tried some of these steps, let me know which ones so I can suggest more advanced troubleshooting. Otherwise, give these a shot and tell me what happens!

Just to verify — are you downloading Knives Out from the Microsoft Store or another platform? That can help tailor advice.
