How to Fix Honkai Star Rail Failed to Unzip Game Files Error on PC

There are several ways that you can fix the Failed to Unzip Game Files error when trying to play Honkai Star Rail on PC. According to the official Launcher FAQ, the first thing you need to do is check whether you have enough space on your hard disk for the game. If not, delete some stuff and then re-open the launcher and try installing / updating the game again. For those of you that do have enough space, the next thing to address is your antivirus. It might be blocking some of the files that Honkai needs to work properly. Be sure to add all of them to the program’s whitelist or close the antivirus before you retry playing / installing. That should be a pretty easy fix.

Another potential fix for the Honkai Star Rail Failed to Unzip Game Files error on PC is for those of you that the log informs it can’t find the “7z.exe” file. If you get that message, double-click “launcher.exe” in the launcher directory. That should take care of it. Those are all of the official fixes. Of course, you should always make sure that you have the latest version of both the launcher and the game downloaded and installed in the future, since that can probably also mess with the game. So, that’s all we have for you in this guide. If you know of any other fixes or workarounds, let us know in the comments below.
