on the game directory can you do this command with cmd? tree /F /A >basegame_gi[your region].txt then upload the file here

Also look at the config.ini in base game folder and the app.info file inside [GenshinImpact/YuanShen]_Data/ folder, you can either just copy the content here or upload the file

Sorrt but I can't understand that how to do this. I mean that input what to replace '[your region]'

Ah alright, so its Global region we'll investigate what happened but for now, can you make an empty file next to GenshinImpact.exe called @DisableSophon then relaunch the launcher and try to update again

Thank you a lot. It works.

We'll reopen this issue for now as the Sophon method is apparently still broken, the @DisableSophon file will disable the chunk update method and use old zip method instead (we don't know how long they will still zip updates/packages), so fixing the new method is preferable
