Welcome, and we hope you find this guide to Hogwarts Legacy – Pause Cutscenes Tutorial Guide useful.

Third-party software can pause long cutscenes and then resume the game. Unfortunately, it can lead to cutscene crashes, but it is still a viable option in emergencies as a possible solution.
Feel free to give some ideas in the comments.

Solution

Here we are:

• Step 1: Download and extract PSTools from Microsoft.

• Step 2: Create a batch file to stop the game:

  @echo off
  pssuspend.exe HogwartsLegacy.exe

  Save the file as “hogwarts_pause.bat”.

• Step 3. Create a second batch file to restart the game:

  @echo off
  pssuspend -r HogwartsLegacy.exe

  Save the file in the format “hogwarts_resume.bat”.

• Step 4: Download and extract the HotkeyPlus

  It may be beneficial to add the hotkeyplus.exe file to your start.

• Step 5: Launch hotkey-plus. Right-click the icon on your Systray and select Configuration. Click Add to browse to the bat file you have created. Give it the hotkey. Repeat the procedure for the second file by using a different hotkey.

That’s it. You can now launch the game by pressing the pause hotkey. This will pause the cutscene and allow you to start the scene.

I hope that you don’t get frustrated if you get an unexpected call during the cutscene or if the pizza boy rings your phone.
