If you’ve been playing Escape from Tarkov, chances are you might have encountered the very unwelcome Profile data loading error, whether after a disconnect or as you’re logging in.
If you’ve been on the receiving end of the Profile data loading error, you might be wondering if there’s a fix or a workaround that lets you carry on with your Escape from Tarkov session. Here’s what we’ve found out.
Escape from Tarkov Profile Data Loading Error
Escape from Tarkov’s Profile data loading error has been around for quite a while now, as long time players will readily let you know. In spite of this, a universal fix hasn’t been identified yet.
The Profile data loading error seems to be caused by server issues on developer Battlestate Games’ end. Luckily, players have reported getting around it in the past.
One workaround involves clearing out your PC’s temp folder. If that doesn’t work, clearing out the cache folder in your Escape from Tarkov folder also yielded positive results for some players.
Running Escape from Tarkov as admin is also worth trying when you’re being hounded by the game’s Profile data loading error. As a last resort, you could try verifying the game’s files and re-installing the game.
It’s worth keeping in mind that your mileage will vary, as neither of the above fixes are official solutions provided by the Escape from Tarkov devs to the Profile data loading error.
Escape from Tarkov is now available in Beta on PC.
