Have you played before? or first time launching?

Possible issues:
Something just went wrong within network set up
It is quite common that something could go wrong just because your machine or your router worked without rebooting for a long time. Turning it off and on again sometimes can do magic… no one in the world know why... but before trying other things, try doing the basics:
Reboot your PC
Shut down Steam and relog
Reboot your router
Check the game's file integrity
Block by your ISP
We are seeing that quite a few ISPs are blocking access to our backend service that help player to connect. We do not understand why this happens yet, but we are trying to reach out to them and try t address this. A few has already replied and unblocked us allowing players to play normally, however this process could take time.
If your ISP has any sort of app or a website where you can turn off additional security settings - try doing this, it could help!
If you know a place where your ISP shows a list of blocked sites - try looking for something that has windrose.support in it - this is us! Please unblock!
Try connecting via different connection services (even if you are from NA, if you can not connect with your friends, try selecting Asia or CIS and see if it works for you)
We cannot recommend to install any third party software, but quite a few people reported that using apps like https://one.one.one.one/ or similar to this one could help to bypass this block until it is lifted by ISPs
You network settings priorities IPv6 over IPv4
The game is currently architected to use IPv4, so if your IPv6 priority is much higher there could be connection issues. Disabling IPv6, or increasing IPv4 priority could sole that issue.

You are playing from the same network
We currently have an issue with PC's connecting to each other from the same network could not connect ot each other via invite code. We are working on finding a solution to allow regular connection for this setup. However we have recently released an update that allows connection via IP. Connecting via direct IP should allow playing from the same network without any issues.
Please note: If you want other players to connect to you via direct IP, you need to set up your router accordingly.

You still have a savefile though
Very likely

%localappdata%\R5\Saved\Logs - please give me the most recent log then
native lance
do you want me to like copy paste all of it?
jagged river
.zip whole folder, give me one most recent one, whatever works
native lance
jagged river
Hm, still looks like a corrupted save tbh.
Just to make sure lets do following.
- make sure your cloud save is turned OFF
- after that, go and delete whole %localappdata%\R5\Saved\ folder
- try to launch the game
native lance
alright ill try
@jagged river still just stuck in a loading screen after the little tutorial part
jagged river
Wait, I got it all wrong
If you are stuck in loading screen on connection
Then it's connectivity issue
Please check options from our FAQ - https://playwindrose.com/faq/
If you've tried Firewall/Antivirus disable/IPv6/DNS/port forwarding and nothing helps - try using cloudflare warp https://one.one.one.one/, a lot of players reported it helped them, so you may try that out.
Some ISP like Bezeq International Ltd, Ziggo, telnet, Xfinity, Spectrum, and others are blocking our servers, so disabling advanced security feaures provided by them might be good idea as well. (Or contacting ISP support to whitelist windrose.support domains)
Also firewalla routers sometimes report windrose.support as a malicious site, adding a whitelist rule for the windrose.support domain helps.

wouldn’t be a big deal if they added admin commands in the game. could just force xp to your character and spawn what you need to get back to your progression like ark does
