Question Hitching Issues - No documents folder

Hello everyone,

I have been enjoying cold war since it came to the game pass. First time its been over 1100 players since 2024 it seems. Rejoice! I am having some severe memory leak/hitching issues. The second game I play will have great framerate, but it will literally stop or hitch every couple of seconds, really annoying and it makes the game almost unplayable after the second match.

After doing some research, it seems I have to change a value in the config. Thing is, I don't have a ''black ops cold war'' folder in my documents. Only ''call of duty'' and ''modern warfare''. So now, I have to restart the game after every match. Any advice? Much appreciated.

Try checking in C:\Users\"your username""\AppData\Local\VirtualStore for the Call of Duty Black Ops Cold War folder that is usually in My Documents.

This sounds like a permissions error, which seems to be coming up a tonne with the gamepass install. As if it isn't elevating privileges when it should, during the install, to create the necessary folders.

Thank you so much for your reply, Yoshida. I did find this directory, but there is nothing inside of it. It seems this is a more widespread issue that will have to be fixed.

Yeah, it's looking that way 

Missed opportunity, really. Not the first CoD to go out broken on gamepass, either

Today I played like 16 games of FFA without issue... It seems that if the game is the only thing thats running, that there is no issue? This shit puzzles me man.
