Same, well now I know I'm not the only one. 33% and endless file scanning. It's okay, I'm just gonna wait until tomorrow morning if not I'll re install.

and then you get told to jump through all these hoops when 2 hours ago the game ran just fine. It's so aggravating!!!

Same issue and I´m from LAN. Just doesn´t work.

I´m in curse voice with my friends WHO ARE CONNECTED AND PLAYING (In the LAN server of course) as I try and do EVERYTHING in your technical assistance webpage with no results. Just gets stuck in 33%. Look, I´m not mad or anything but come on Riot, your patch 5.3 was buggy right from the start and you know it.

I´ll be patient and just stack my Rod of Ages while I wait till tomorrow to see if anything has happened. item 3027 Thanks before hand for all your hard work Riot and hopefully this does get assessed soon enough.

If you wanna fix it, heres what you do, It takes a long ass time, but its less time than re-installing and it's better than being forced to quit. Open your File Manager, go to your C Drive. Then, click on the 'Riot Games' Folder. Then click on League Of Legends, then RADS. After that, the projects folder, and thenclick on the 'lol_game_client' folder. Then, delete the folder titled 'filearchives'. Then, open up your client again, and commence the re-patch! Hope this helps you guys :)

tried this. you left out a step, and 'filearchives' is a folder, not a file. other than that, it seems to be doing the exact same thing... the path is C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_game_client\filearchives

EDIT: I got it working. Not sure if Riot fixed it or if this helped, but I can play now, so whatever.

I didnt leave out anything haha, I have to do this at least once a week and have been since 4.13. And yeah i know, that was my bad lol. And if it's still doing the same thing then it's most likely data corruption and you'll probably have to re-install league :/

C:\Riot Games\League of Legends\RADS\projects\lol_game_client\filearchives. you didn't mention the projects folder. not complaining, just trying to help out anyone else who wants to try this

What I did to fix this yesterday was reinstall league of legends. It took a while, but it fixed the problem.

ZoroastrianFeb 13, 20151 votes

This happened to me during a ranked game. I loaded in and made it to about 2nd mid tower before my game crashed. When I opened it back up I was met with this 33% issue. I was out of the game for almost 6 minuets. I got back in game when everyone was level 7. We won, (because somehow I was blessed with an awesome team) but I still was marked with a leave buster. >_>

Guess I'm restarting my game before every ranked game now... don't want 20 minute ques.
