How to fix Granite error (Granite:2000000) on Far Cry 5?

1: Verify the game’s integrity

Since it seems that this error mostly plagues uPlay users (Ubisoft Launcher) and not Steam users, that’s where our focus goes. The first obvious thing you should try is checking the game installation for corruption. This can be done within the uPlay desktop client. Once you run the tool, it’ll check for possible corruption and replace the broken files. Here’s how to run it:

2: Delete saved games and change Save location

As the affected users probably are well aware, the Granite error breaks save game progress and users get back to the start every time. Only to get kicked off the new session and get back to start again. For some reason, this occurs due to the game’s inability to access the Save Games folder. It looks like some limitations are imposed on it, even if that’s not the case for any other game.

3: Start uPlay client in offline mode and run uPlay as admin

Starting the uPlay client in the Offline mode is another thing you could try. This seemingly helped more than a few users and the Granite error was addressed. In addition, you can give an extra boost to uPlay permissions since the game, for some reason, avoids saving the in-game progress which leads to crashes. You can do so by giving the uPlay launcher administrative permission. Here’s how to start uPlay in the Offline mode: And this is how to grant it the administrative permission:

4: Reinstall the uPlay

Finally, if none of the previous steps got you out of the slump, we recommend reinstalling the uPlay client. Furthermore, in order to avoid possible issues, it’s suggested to clear all remaining associated files and start from a scratch. Of course, avoid deleting other games or at least move their installations to an alternative partition. Once you’ve reinstalled the game and uPlay, sign in, point out to Far Cry 5 directory (you won’t need to download the game anew), and start the game. That’s it.
