Does an uninstall/reinstall usually fix bugs in Fallout 4? - Free stock photo of action, adult, auto

I heard that some people experienced success in uninstalling and reinstalling the PC version to fix bugs. Would the same apply to the Xbox One version?



Best Answer

It is possible.

During installation, as the process is complex, it is entirely possible that something would go wrong. Moreover the game makes minor changes to the system, in relation to itself, so deleting the game will revert those changes, and having a fresh installation may fix some problems.

This is especially true if you have installed Mods.

Similarly to how a windows Reinstallation fixes pretty much everything wrong with your PC and is recommended every now and then.
