Game Will No Longer Launch No Matter What I Do.
I have been able to play 8 hours of this game without issue. Everything ran fine. But now I can no longer launch it.

I have tried every troubleshooting method people have suggested. I have verified files, updated graphics driver, updated Windows, restarted my computer, run .exe as admin, run compatibility mode for Windows 7 and 8, run Ubisoft Connect as admin, disabled frame gen, reduced monitor refresh rate to 60, unlinked my Steam account from Ubisoft Connect, tried older graphics drivers, and several combinations of above, and probably other methods that i have forgotten. I have been at this for hours.

I can no longer play the game I was able to play without issue earlier. I can no longer play the game I paid $88 for. And neither Ubisoft nor Nvidia has addressed this. Other people on forums seemed to be able to fix this somehow, but no method has worked for me.

I am on an HP Omen with a 4090.

UPDATE: God I feel so stupid. Granted, I've been working a few days straight and just came back to this game.

For anybody who has my problem and my same rig, use CTRL ALT DELETE, find OMEN Booster and end process for it. It works well with all other games but causes AC Shadows to crash. My game loaded up immediately after this.

I hope this helps anybody else who has this problem.

Happy Gaming! This is the best Assassin's Creed in a long while, best mix of the old era and the new!
I don't see an OMEN Booster on my end unless OMEN is an abbreviation for something else? Because I would like to go back to playing a game I paid for which is the deluxe version.

So, this solved my problem.
Try this: Delete all save-game data for ACShadows, Do not delete the ACShadows[OPTIONS].save; delete everything else.
Ubisoft Connect: C:\Program Files (x86)\Ubisoft\Ubisoft Game Launcher\savegames
