Keeps crashing on start up

[The Black Pestilence Doctor]

My game keeps crashing every time I start it up, anyone gotten a solution so far? I have verified the files, uninstalled and reinstalled and verified again and still no luck

Information is needed...crash report...PC Specs?

When you do a fresh install delete FactoryGame folder here: C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Local\FactoryGame

Make sure you save your .sav files and blueprints

Maybe directx 12 crash on launch.
The first solution is to make Steam launch Satisfactory with DirectX 11 instead of 12.

Right-click Satisfactory in your library and select Properties.
Under General, type “-dx11” (excluding the quotations) under Launch Options.

Now Satisfactory should launch using DirectX11 instead of 12.
Work for me.

Be effective, now go to save the date.
