Hello everyone,
when I start the game (no matter DX11 or DX12) the game shows the launcher but then immediately crashes back to windows when I press play.
The run part is, I have the exact same issue with Control (Game). I checked some forum posts on steam suggesting creating a new windows account and I did and it actually worked and the game runs just fine.
Does someone know any difference, why my normal windows account would be an issue and a new windows account seems to work fine for both games? Anyone has any ideas what the difference between accounts might be?
-- Edit (solved)
I do not have any strange characters, but my "documents" folder has, and I assume that this is the place the makes the game crash when it wants to create a new profile/save or something like that. Checking and changing to English characters made it work.
