[PC] Unable to load save games - missing content

Alright, this is odd, as re-installing should also re-download the missing or corrupted extra content.

Try the following stuff:

• Back-Up your Savegames! like, NOW!
• start a new game, check if the dlcs are loaded correctly
• try playing your old savegame after that

I really hope it helps, I was one of the apparently few persons who were able to finish a game without encountering any bugs ☹️

I have encountered after a forced reset and resolved this issue for myself, although I cannot confirm that it will for you. I tried the following with no effect

• Repair the game
• Uninstall then reinstall the offending DLC via the following two commands
  • "C:\Program Files\Common Files\EAInstaller\Mass Effect Andromeda\Deep_Space\Cleanup.exe" uninstall_pdlc -autologging
  • "C:\Program Files\Common Files\EAInstaller\Mass Effect Andromeda\Deluxe_Edition\Cleanup.exe" uninstall_pdlc -autologging
• Delete profile files in my documents (I made a backup to be safe)

The solution that worked for me is as follows:

1. Ensure that both Mass Effect and Origin are closed. Both MUST be closed for this to work.
2. Run Origin as Administrator (by right clicking and selecting "Run as administrator".
3. Start Mass Effect Andromeda, my save game could be loaded at this point.

This seems to have fixed it for me permanently, I don't need to keep on running it as admin, there must be a setup step that needed to be run. If you have disabled User Account Control (UAC) then this will not help you since it is not relevant.

Would help if you provided the specifics of your issue, which platform you're on, and (if PC) a DXdiag report.

Thanks that worked for me
