Should I reinstall?
So for last 3 days my game crashed on itself and all 3 times it was the same time. After all 3 crashes I got "frezze detected" pop up which is weird as game was running in completly solid 60 FPS and it just crashes. Immidetly after crashing game will start checking files on itself without my permission and this also happebd on all 3 times it crashed. Alredy sent a ticket to support, told me to check files again (I did after 2nd crash, still no change)

So my question is, should I deinstall and install the game back again?

Edit: Forgot to mention that when taking screenshot (be it steam hotkey or Print Screen button) the game will alt tab on itself. Further more, when alt tabbing the game might close itself. All of the mention problems started after the latest bug fix

Check the integrity of the game files, If its the original installer from the site then the launcher comes with a handy little diagnostic tool and file checker.

Also might help to list your rigs specs might be something there.

keep your task manager open and play the game, if your ram or CPU is too high, try reducing your graphics. Also try what was mentioned above to see if it helps.

I got the game trught Steam, I did run the file check as suggested but it kept going with crashes. Will get rig specs tomorrow as PC is currently off.

Task manager is open, I don't have problems with either CPU or RAM. For graphics I use custom that are mostly on medium, I did try running on ULQ but nothing changed.

Also, check my edit on the main topic.

Have you tried running the game in Windowed or Fullscreen Windowed

Maybe you should take it as a sign from the heavens.

Spec's wise you should be ok and recently updating windows shouldn't effect it I update every time it wants to update. A clean reinstall might be your only option at this point, if it continues after that then you might want to try and change over to the original launcher and ditch the steam one, it might be an issue on steams end.
