Still Can’t Exit Power Armor? – Here’s Fixes!

If you still can’t exit power armor, there could be a few reasons for it. You can resolve the issue by following the steps below!

Step 1: Check Controls Settings

Firstly, you need to check the in-game controls. You can follow the steps below to do this:

1. Pause the game.
2. Select the Settings option.
3. Navigate to the Controls settings.

Check the “Active” option here. If you are using a computer keyboard, it should be the E key; if you are using a Playstation Dualshock, it should be the X button; and if you are using an Xbox controller, it should be the A button. If not, change this option and try again to exit the power armor.

Step 2: Verify Game Files

If you’re playing on a PC through a platform like Steam, you can verify the integrity of your game files:

1. Right-click on Fallout 4 in your Steam library.
2. Select “Properties”.
3. Go to the “Local Files” tab.
4. click on the “Verify Integrity of Game Files” button.

If Steam detects an error in the game files, it will resolve it quickly!

Step 3: Check Your Controller or Keyboard

If the issue persists, the problem may be with your keyboard or Playstation/Xbox controller. If you’re not sure whether there is an issue, you can follow the steps below:

1. If you are using a keyboard, go to this link; if you are using an Xbox or Playstation controller, go to this link.
2. If you are using a keyboard, hold down the E key; if you are using a Playstation Dualshock, hold down the X button; if you are using an Xbox controller, hold down the A button.

If there is no change on the screen after this process (no color change, movement, etc.), it means your controller is likely faulty.
