Out of frustration, players have deleted the installed game and reinstalled it a number of times on their consoles, but the game did not work.
Please check out a few tried and tested ways gamers have tried out till an official fix is rolled out by Raven. If you are not comfortable with any, it is suggested to stop playing the game until an official fix arrives.
A solution that worked for some was to uninstall the MW game, delete the game directory and reinstall.

Many players haven’t uninstalled the game yet, hopeful the developers will fix the game, nevertheless, we all had a good time playing this game for almost 2 years.

It is illegal the way Activision neglects Modern Warfare to be riddled with bugs. Gamers have paid $60+ for a game that devs roll half baked updates. Modern Warfare gamers feel that it was ridiculous to have Warzone attached in the first place. The devs should have just made Warzone an independent game as they did with Apex and Titanfall. Instead, they added Warzone, Cold War and Vanguard just to make MW worse and make players buy the other titles. MW once was a great game but no more. Thank you, Activision for making all of us play other games as Halo Infinite and Battlefield!
