It can be used to buy and download games as well as DLCs. It can also be used to chat, read up news about games and manage you game library and achievements. The problem is that some players have reported that they are having problems with their achievements.

Sometimes achievements get unlocked, sometimes they don’t

It would seem that sometimes their achievements and progress aren’t syncing or unlocking. What’s more concerning is that players that had unlocked achievements now seem to report that they have disappeared.

What to do if Uplay achievements aren’t syncing?

1. Make a back-up of your Achievements folder

Normally, Uplay should upload the achievements file of all of your games to the cloud. However, it doesn’t seem to do this with all of the games, such as with some Assassin’s Creed titles. Because of this, you have to do it manually. You’ll first need to complete the game with some of the Achievements, for testing purposes. Navigate to where your achievements are locally stored:

C:\Users%USER%\AppData\Local\Ubisoft Game Launcher\spool%manynumbers%

After that, you’ll just have to uninstall and re-install Uplay and your game: If you Uninstall Uplay it will delete the Ubisoft Game Launcher folder. If you install Uplay again, you’ll notice many Achievements will be reset, but if you also restore the .spool file the Achievements will be back.

2. Wait it out

Sometimes achievements won’t be granted the exact moment you’ve met all the prerequisites. In fact, some reports state that it may take up to 48 hours until you may receive them.

3. Contact Customer support

If all solutions listed above fail to yield results, you should consider contacting Ubisoft customer support. While this is indeed a serious problem, the only thing players could hope is a patch to be released in the near future. Until then, players will just have to back-up their own files. READ ALSO:
