Crashing on startup (Solved)
Im having a serious issue regarding the game starting up and crashing on the bethesda logo. I've already looked this issue up and tried all of the potential solutions, but it's still crashing.

And I don't understand why it's crashing now as I was playing it a bit a few weeks ago before uninstalling it to make space for stuff, and it was running just fine.

Edit: After trying a variety of solutions, from reinstalling (And also verifying game files), updating and reinstalling graphics drivers, running the game with compatibility mode for windows 8 (It worked a small bit but was still crashing), and running as admin. But after all that, the game started to work after I restarted my computer.

Some games like FO76 like to be installed on a SSD (solid state drive) not an HDD(hard disk drive). I found when I put my game on a SSD, it and other games barely ever crash*, and it loads a lot faster. If you are freeing up space to run your game(s) then buy another drive. They are cheap enough now and you can get a 1TB for 64$
*like once every few months

I had a same issue... For me Overwolf Plugin caused the crash.
