CryEngine fatal error
Recently, for about one week now I had an issue with a cryengine error, saying it "Couldn't access needed files. Crashing...", it escalated from happening once every couple of matches to every single match, losing my hunter each time, anyone else had/has this issue? If possible, does anyone know any fixes?

I also tried reinstalling the game and verifying game cache, I have 8gb ram, a GTX 1060 and i7 4790

stress test GPU, CPU and memory while monitoring your temps on CPU and GPU

make sure windows 10 is up to date .. and if stress tests don't cause errors/crashes . .try rolling back nvidia drivers

You can also check Event Viewer and see if any errors are being generated when Hunt crashes

I actively checked my cpu and gpu while trying to play a match, until it crashed and after it crashed there were no issues with either, I had also already tried reverting my nvidia driver, that didn't work either.

Although I probably found an issue, I have the game on borderless windowed and have 2 monitors, I tend to click between the 2 quite often, sometimes even during matches, however I've been playing hunt since May and didn't have this issue until now. Could me clicking between the 2 monitors be the issue? Considering its kinda of an alt-tab in a way
