How to possibly fix Delta Force "Failed to get the branch list" error?

Before we begin with the possible fixes for Delta Force "Failed to get the branch list" error, ensure that the game's servers are up and running. If they aren't, then there's nothing you can do.

That said, here are some of the possible fixes for the Delta Force "Failed to get the branch list" error:

Restart your router

This is the most simple and the easiest fix. A proper router reboot, especially if it's been up for quite some time, usually rids off a host of network issues. Rebooting your router will clear the device's cache. This will delete any corrupted cache files that may have been causing troubles on your system.

To properly reboot your router, make sure to turn it off and remove all power cables from the device. Let it remain in the idle state for at least 30 seconds. Then plug the cables back in and turn on your router as usual. This should resolve the issue.

If the above fix doesn't work, your next step is to check for corrupted game files. Fortunately, Steam makes this process a breeze. Here's how you can check your game files:

• Go to your Steam Library.
• Select Delta Force from the Library.
• Right-click on the game.
• Select Properties.
• Go to the Installed Files section.
• Select Verify Integrity of game files.

Let Steam complete the checks. Depending on your hardware, this can take you a while. If any corrupted files are found during the scan, Steam will automatically get them, and the Delta Force "Failed to get the branch list" error should not be a cause of concern anymore.

Reinstall the game

Although this is a less-than-ideal solution, many users have reported that a fresh install resolved the issue for them. If you have the bandwidth and no data limits, it is advised to just reinstall the game. Uninstall the game first using third-party uninstallers which will clean all traces of the game from your PC.

Once the uninstallation is complete, reboot your PC, and try reinstalling the game.

Disclaimer: These fixes are not guaranteed to work.
