Hey.

First time I have gotten a 'proper' PC game in over a decade... (maybe two) so I know I may not be doing things right...

So I got a whole lot of warnings when I installed the paradox launcher but just kept trying it out and then it worked. So now I am trying to install Stellaris and I keep getting this issue come up

"Missing repository location metadata, could not install
DISMISS"

I read through some of the other posts about this and there talking about removing things and all sorts of things. Could you explain it like I am real stupid? I haven't played a game on PC in years except Starsector... which is a lot of fun. Anyway, any help would be appreciated, and like I said first time with the launcher... ever. So yeah like am real stupid. if you could please...

Thank it advance have a good one mates.

EDIT: Nevermind mates, SOLVED! Apparently just brute forcing and loading and unloading and clicking more solved it... I think...
I am not sure... I can make a new game I think...

Sorry, it has been a long time. Time to make my new empires :D

Good luck if you have this issue I fixed it by just brute forcing.
