Error code FFFFFFF
So I just installed the game. Launched it and got unknown error FFFFF

Applied all suggested fixes - changed api from vulkan to directx ( i'm on nvidia) and dlsss on after deleting game folder.

Pains me to do, but requested refund. Is there any fixes around? Haven't found nothing.
I did not even get to play the game, it was first launch, no mods whatsoever. Video fixes completely useless, talking about mods and sh*t like I care CUZ I HAVE NO MODS
