Crash + game don't start
Recently and out of nowhere, after updating my PC and drivers, I came across some random crashes in this game in question, which occurred about 30 minutes after starting and later became more frequent. After that, I can't play anymore and it won't even start.

What I've already done so far:

- View file integrity
- change the game installation location (to SSD, for exemple)
- uninstall and install the game
- lower the game resolution
- i checked if i have some program that conflicts with the game (I don't have one).

Nothing works.

Same problem. After a recent Windows 10 update, the game crashed and now I can't log in at all (I click play in the launcher, the launcher closes and after a few seconds the game process closes).

I searched around before posting here and I saw that it is a problem that according to posts I saw, both on Reddit and also here, started since 2014. Apparently it is a problem that the developers have not yet managed to solve, worse is to think that it can happen in the other games in the franchise, which does not give any security and confidence. I think that sooner or later, everyone will go through this.
A shame because I really like the franchise.
Perhaps this is due to the Windows 10 update, because my game was working fine before that. Sometimes she flew out, but then I could come back in. Now it doesn't log in at all, although I tried to delete the updates (I was able to delete one, the second cannot be deleted). I'm not going to roll back the system for the sake of the game.
I have solved the problem. In general, it wasn't the Windows 10 update, but the new Nvidia driver. I deleted it and installed a more stable version, namely 561.09.
Interestingly, the second part and the second part of the Remastered version worked stably on the new driver, but the third did not. I did not check the stability of the fourth and fifth parts of the game. By the way, the driver that I specified above is stable for many games (I had crashes in several games and it was installing the driver version 561.09 that solved the problem). Then I installed a new driver and there were problems. In general, one of the most stable drivers at the moment is 561.09.

After updating the Nvidia drivers again yesterday and almost 2 weeks after this post, the game has fortunately stabilized. I don't know much about computers and I'm not a computer scientist, but I would really like to understand what happened.

Still, I want to thank everyone who responded and dedicated their time and help in this post. Thank you very much
Another drive update (yesterday), today the game made crashes few times and don´t launch again... and I did everything as at the beginning
man this game is sick!! I'm going to pretend this game doesn't exist! Maybe it's easier and faster to crack it
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

Thanks man!! It really worked! at least so far!

No one is a computer expert. I think it would be the developers' responsibility to solve it. These errors have been occurring since 2014, from what I saw on Reedit Thanks!!
the renaming didn´t work for me :-(
