How do I remove the annoying red screen that pops up randomly when playing XCOM: Chimera Squad?
It’s incredibly stupid how the developers of the game left in those annoying red screens, seems like something that only should be present during play-testing.

If you’re not playing on Steam, you could always find the location of the folder, it’s generally in “XCOM Chimera Squad\Binaries\Win64”, it varies depending on where you installed the game.
For default steam it is: “C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\XCOM Chimera Squad\Binaries\Win64\xcom.exe”
xcom.exe is the executable file for the game, and you’d want to right-click to create a shortcut.
