Encountering the ‘Failed to load il2cpp’ error inZenless Zone Zerocan be frustrating, but it’s a common issue that players can resolve with a few troubleshooting steps. This article will guide you through the necessary fixes to get you back into the game quickly.
How to fix il2cpp Loading Error inZenless Zone Zero(Solution)
Errors like this are annoying, and this one seems most prominent with the recentZenless Zone Zero1.1 update specifically on PC. Thankfully, there are a few things you can do that may fix your issue.
Restart your computer
The most basic solution out of the bunch, sometimes a simple system restart is enough to correct anomaly errors that appear out of thin air. Failed to load il2cpp qualifies, so I recommend starting with this solution first. If it doesn’t work, try some of the following potential solutions below.
Launch the HoYoplay Repair Tool
Since the error seems most common following the download ofZenless Zone Zeroupdate 1.1, it is possible that data corruption occurred during the process, preventing the game from starting up. Since this is the case, one possible fix is to use the HoYoPlay Repair Tool, built right into the game’s launcher.
To do this, openHoYoplayand look for thethree-line buttonsitting to the right of theStart Gamebutton. Click on this dropdown and selectRepair Now. This process will take considerable time, but the result should fix the Failed to load il2cpp error and have your game functional once more.
Add an Exception to your Anti-Virus program
Another reason you may be getting the failed to load il2cpp error is that your anti-virus program is flagging a file (or files) as problematic, preventing them from functioning or even being downloaded. Since new files are being downloaded in the 1.1. update, this a very real possibility to consider.
The fix for this is toadd the HoYoplay folder to your exceptions listfor the anti-virus program that you use. I recommend also adding it as an exception for Windows Defender, as any false flag can cause a file to not be downloaded, leading to the pesky il2cpp error on game launch.
Hopefully one of these solutions fixed the problem for you, so you’re able to jump back into the game. If not, sometimes problems like this can only be fixed from the developer side of the spectrum. Allow Hoyoverse some time to iron out the issue, and you should be good to go after that. Happy gaming
