Game crashes after closing
Since the new Steam Update from Yesterday, the Game crashes my AMD Graphic Driver and the Daysgone.exe when i close the Game. The Game itself works without Issues.

I´ve reinstalled Steam, clear all shader caches and reinstall the game completely.

It has something to do with the new crashhandler64.dll in Steam Folder.

Anyone else??? It´s not the End of the World but i don´t like it when Drivers crash... that things let me think something is wrong with my PC ^^

Same here, I think this is the latest Steam client update fault.
Had the same Problem a few hours ago, also after the update... so I'm not the only one.
But it just crashes the .exe and not the GPU Driver (Nvidia).

Good to know it's not just me. Updated steam this morning and it's been worrying me since. Try closing the game by the 'Force Quit' option in the steam overlay. It's a workaround till we wait for a patch.

Steam Update this morning... Same Issue... Days gone.exe crash at closing... but the Drivers don´t crash anymore

I am using the force quit function for now...

What update are we supposed to wait for now exactly? Steam or Days Gone?

i don´t really know... it could be an Issue with some configurations and the latest Client Update or at could be a Game Issue in Combination with the latest Client Patch.

Same here,

Until yesterday no crash on exit, after this damn update every time the game crash on exit and event viewer points to crashhandler64.dll which is 100% related to Steam client. Happens on Win 10 20h2 and Win 7 Ultimate ESU

Same, thankfully not crashing my driver. Only reason I noticed it is because I occasionally check event viewer out of curiosity and found the logs about days gone crashing when I close the game.

There’s a few other games that do the same thing and have for quite some time, Dark Souls 3 and Dayz come to mind and I’ve played both a decent amount with no real issues so it’s probably nothing to worry about. Steam most likely (falsely) thinks that the game closing is a crash and reports it to event viewer.

Spent around 40 hrs in Days Gone over last two weeks without a single problem.
Two days ago after Steam update game crashes when I quit to desktop. I only know that because I check Event Viewer regularly.

Steam update was only thing that changed on my system.

No problem ingame, no crashes during gameplay and sound works flawlessly.

Tried veryfing game files, downloaded newest nvidia drivers (old 466.47 --> new hotfixed 466.74), Steam had another update yesterday- no change game crashes on exit and only then.

Just reporting in as this was linked from another place, that I too am getting this exact issue but for the game "Oxygen Not Included", apples and oranges here I know, but it's also started crashing when I quit the game since the update, and then crashhandler64.dll makes a dump of it.

Yup in case of Days Gone its BEX64 crash event that origins from STEAM's crashhandler64.dll.

Hey everyone, just contact Steam tech support because the more reports, the greater chance for a fix - I already did it.

I tried to contract Bend, possibly get a trouble ticket. Seems they don't have that customer service.

This isn't a Bend Studio fault, this is a Steam fault and their latest client update from 7 June, you all must contact directly Steam tech support.
