What is this? This doesn't let me play almost. It crashes my game sometimes. My videocard: GeForce GTX 950 2GB. Stable 30 fps with lowest settings.

Thanx to all the contributors.
I wanna share a fix, that worked for my GTX 1650 (laptop)
1. Installed the oldest compatible driver (496.49). The ones proposed in a youtube video weren't compatible with my card and/or Windows.
2. Disabled / removed all overlay programs and features.
3. Deleted SteamOverlayVulkanLayer64.json file each time after launching steam.
4. Run the game as an admin.

After that I got only one vk_error crash in nearly 20 hours of gameplay. Before the fix the game was totally unplayable crashing every 5-20 mins and I was considering a refund.

Hope this will help someone.

I know this is an old post, but if ou are recieving this error when first starting the game and the game doesn't even load, then what I found worked for me was in the nvidia control panel add DBH to the programs list in manage 3d settings. Then turn off image sharping for the game, this work straight away for me. Also, run the game with admin privillages.

what is DHB and how do i add it

Game works fine, it is your CPU memory controller or CPU failing. Test your system 24-48 hours, yes it sounds long, but system stability can be hard to find in just 1 hour.

After a long time of testing new possible fixes, I found that in the manage 3d settings, there is a setting called Vulkan/openGL present method. If you switch that setting to prefer native, then it gets rid of the vk_error_device_lost, at least for me. After doing this, I have not seen the error message come up yet. If this works, then please share this fix with others. Thanks.

right click on your computer desktop screen
open the nvidia control panel
open manage 3d settings and scroll down until you see Vulkan/openGL present method. If you switch that setting to prefer native, then that should get rid of the vk_error_device_lost, error message.

No need to do any of that, if you are crashing now you 100% have a CPU, ram XMP issue or bad GPU
