Crashing during core mining

[prdtr]

Just bought an FC, fitted it with some essential services, and other stuff. Thus, I need to keep up with the weekly upkeep. So I went for mining. Long story short, I went looking for an asteroid with a core, launched a prospector limpet, and the moment it hit the asteroid, the game crashed. Like, crashed crashed. No error code, no nothing, the game just closed.

I was looking for a solution on internet, but no legit solution for the crash. For information, here's my spec:

AMD Ryzen 5 5500U with Radeon Graphics, 8GB RAM, 500GB ROM HDD (if it tells you something), Windows 11.

F-ing frustrating to experience all these persistent crashes, SINCE YESTERDAY

Edit: I used no third-party tools, like EDMC

maybe
steam check game files
if it doesn't help, reinstall

There are 2 possibilities.

1.
The new update added several new keybinds for placing colonies on planets. The game copies existing keybinds, but this could cause crashes. Go into Keybinds setup, find the new colonisation section, and change or clear all the binds.

People have had the game CTD from the galmap and using the external camera until they did this.

2.
If you've not done this for several updates, try clearing the graphics settings folder.

Exit the game and delete the contents of this folder:
%LocalAppData%\Frontier Developments\Elite Dangerous\Options\Graphics\

This can also dramatically improve frame rates if you haven't touched the settings since the Alpha.

i think your CPU is onboard correct? not a dedicated card? perhaps try some settings on low and work your way up. I used to get a random crash and it was AMD drivers. somehow one of them didnt uninstall or unwrite itself when I updated and it caused me like over a year of random crashing.
