Gold Camo Challenge Not Unlocking

M4 Gold Camo
Players have reported being unable to see the challenge for the Gold Camo or unable to equip it after completing its challenge. This only affects PC players since the Gold Camo can't be checked or equipped when a mouse is being used to hover over it. This issue still persists even after players have restarted the game.

Before checking on how to fix this issue, make sure you've already completed the four base Camo Challenges of a weapon since they need to be accomplished before you can actually select the Gold Camo tab.
