Run the Arma 3 Launcher, the default one that came with the game. Should be found in "DRIVE:Program Files*\Steam*\steamapps\common\Arma 3\arma3launcher.exe

*Depends if you installed the game on the drive you installed Steam

When in the launcher please press the dropdown menu on PLAY, and select PLAY without Mods. This starts up the game without any mods, it starts the vanilla game. 

When in that laucher you can go an unload mods under the "MODS" tab. After this, you can run the game normally from the ALUK/RPUK launcher

Hope this helps! If any problems please reply while tagging me (@Sonder)

@Sonderthanks for the original help but that just made it say the same thing this is what it says when I try to join the server

@Sondershould I just delete all the file for arma in steamapps then common delete the Arma 3 folder ? then I could reinstall it all but I'm not sure if that would work

 

[Sonder]

1. Delete all @ folders

2. Clear Addons folder

3. Make sure all mods are unloaded in the Arma Launcher

4. Select Play without Mods

5. Enjoy.

If none of this works, then the files digs deeper into this and I have no other tip than reinstalling Arma 3 from a fresh install.

@SonderI think I will have to completely fresh install it because all of this is coming up now

@Sonderthink one of the @ folders was important

@Sonderhow would I go round fresh installing it ?

 

[Sonder]

Seems like one of the mods have changed the default UI and such, so a clean install would be neccessary anyways. Please follow my steps to do a clean install!

1. Open Steam

2. Right-click Arma 3

3. Choose Properties

4. Press Local Files

5. Press Delete Local Game Content

6. Press Delete

7. Let the process go untouched

Now Arma 3 is uninstalled from your PC. You can at this point reinstall Arma 3 via Steam, but I recommend doing every step below.

8. Go to Documents

9. Make sure all Arma 3 related stuff is deleted -if still there then delete manually

10. Open the "Run" program that comes with Windows

11. Type in %appdata%

12. Go one folder back

13. Go into Local

14. Delete all Arma 3 related folders if any

15. Go to the drive Arma 3 was installed on.

16. Find the "\SteamLibrary\steamapps\Common" directory

17. Make sure Arma 3 adn Arma 3 Tools folder is deleted. (Uninstall process should always remove this automatically, but you never know)

18. Restart steam

19. Install Arma 3

@Sonderthink one of the @ folders was important

Nope, none of the @ folders are used in the base game.
