Enlisted is a massive, squad-based tactical shooter that delivers intense World War II combat. However, nothing kills the excitement faster than seeing your launcher stuck on the "preparing to download" screen. If you are staring at a frozen progress bar, you aren't alone.

If possible, switch from Wi-Fi to an Ethernet cable to stabilize the handshake between the launcher and the server. 2. Run as Administrator

Add launcher.exe and enlisted.exe to your Windows Defender or third-party antivirus exclusion list.

Before tweaking your system, ensure the problem isn't on Gaijin’s end.
