    Only arcade opens when launching far cry

    Hey,

    I downloaded far cry 5 a while ago and it's been going great. But now when opening it I don't get the option to open the regular game or arcade then only arcade launches. Anyone had this problem? I've tried to restart both steam an ubisoft connect, also tried to shut off my computer and turn it back on. Same problem occurs. Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    Can you both go through the following steps and let us know if you're still experiencing this -

    - Navigate to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FarCry5\bin".
    - Delete the file "ArcadeEditor64.exe"
    - Copy the file "FarCry5.exe" to another location. (Desktop, maybe.)
    - Rename this copy of "FarCry5.exe" to "ArcadeEditor64.exe"
    - Move this copy, now renamed ArcadeEditor64, into the FarCry5\bin folder.
    - Finally, open the file named FarCry5.exe in the FarCry5\bin folder.

    The game should open as normal.
