have you tried uninstalling, disabling cloud saves, deleting your %appdata%\Balatro\1\ (example: C:\Users\name\AppData\Roaming\Balatro\1) folder, reinstalling, in this order?

#

well i still cant

#

btw dleanderp how did you get this info on what to do?

#

did it happen to you once?

#

no, but if it used to work, deleting all files and starting completely fresh should work again. i recommended these steps to someone else once and it fixed their issue

green oar oh man didnt work, i guess no more balatro for me 😭

go into %appdata% and click balatro and click your profile and delete the save.jkr

#

or just create a new profile and copy/paste meta.jkr and profile.jkr from the other profile

#

it might not work for you but it worked for me
