Enshrouded Server Troubleshooting Guide

Learn how to fix common Enshrouded dedicated server issues including character save problems, connection errors, and server browser visibility.

Here are some common Enshrouded issues and how to fix them.

Character Is Not Saving

By default, Enshrouded save files are stored on the Steam cloud.

Disable Steam Cloud

Open Steam and go to Library. Right-click Enshrouded and select Properties. Toggle Steam Cloud off.

Restart Your Game

Restart your game if it was running while you made this change. You can always enable Steam Cloud again later if you want to upload your saves to the cloud.

Connecting Anonymously to Steam Public...Retrying

You will likely be unable to connect to your server while Steam is down for maintenance or has an outage. The only solution is to wait 5-10 minutes and try again. You can also try setting Auto Update to 0 in Startup to attempt a connection.

Server Is Not Showing Up in the Browser

Your server likely needs to be updated. Restart your server to apply the latest update, or follow our update guide.

If your server has been updated and still is not showing up, wait a couple of minutes for the in-game server browser to load.

If your server still is not showing up, try connecting directly using the Steam browser method.
