Genshin Impact stuck during gameplay and how to fix it
Some PC users have reported that sometimes the game freezes in a singular location, and the character isn’t even in view. Players can’t access the map, or even open the party menu. Restarting doesn’t seem to fix it either, and it can cause a bit of confusion as to why this is happening.
You can however, fix this, and the steps aren’t that complicated either. If you are stuck in the game, and can’t seem to do anything about it, follow the steps below.
- Open Windows Run, by either pressing the Windows + R keys together or simply searching for it in Windows Search
- Here, type down appdata and press Enter, as shown below
- Now, open both Local and Locallow folders, and delete the miHoYo folders
- Relaunch the game
This will clear your local Genshin Impact cache, and the game will start running normally again.
