Forza Horizon 4 Quitting Upon Startup

You maked some Update or make part of some Insider program? I Sugest for you make a Report about that bug

Hi leoredragon,

Thanks for your post. I understand you are experiencing an issue with missing saved progress in Forza Horizon 4. To troubleshoot this issue please quit Forza Horizon 4, restart your PC and re-launch the game. Upon launch, your game should sync your last
saved data.

I hope this helps.

Hello there @DalenNeilson, I hope everything is going well!

Thank you for reaching Microsoft Xbox Forum support. The crashing or freezing of a certain game/apps is generally related to the network which is why I will provide you with the official link to all the troubleshooting steps that can help sort this out for you. Before going through the troubleshooting steps mentioned on the link I was referring to, I would like you to go through the following steps to clear your Mac address and perform a quick power cycle:

Settings > Network Settings > Advanced Settings > Alternate Mac Address > Clear it and the console should restart. It would definitely help if you could restart the internet router while the console is restarting.

After going through the troubleshooting steps mentioned, I invite you to perform a quick power cycle by turning off the console and then unplugging all the cables. After 2 to 3 minutes, re-plug them back again, then restart your console.

In case the issue still persists after the previous steps have been performed, here is the official link to all the troubleshooting steps that can help sort this out.

In case the troubleshooting steps mentioned on the previous link weren't helpful, I have another link for you that could help you take care of the situation! Here is another and a more narrow link related specifically to game crash, and game freeze related issues:

The link: Troubleshoot game issues on Xbox | Xbox Support

In case the issue still persists, the next step would be to perform a reset on the console. To do so you will need to follow the steps below to perform a reset on the Xbox :

Settings > System > Console Info > Reset This Xbox > Reset and Keep my Games and Apps.

Note =>The "Reset and Keep my Games and Apps" option will not cause losing your games, but please be aware that you need to be completely aware of the email address as well as the password of your account before going for it because it will require you to sign in to the account.

I wish you a lovely day, and I hope this helps you out! All the best!

Kind Regards

Stay safe, and happy gaming!

Not played Forza 4 for quite a while now. Only reason is that, I've been concentrating of finishing Forza 3 off! Finally got solid gold 2 week ago, playing Horizon at the min, but will return to Forza 4.

As many have said here, Forza Horizon 3 & 4 are great choices especially with the driving assistants /game settings adjusted. As your nephew improves he can tinker away and if he is an 8 year old gamer, no doubt he will pick it up quickly.

Its also fun to just throw the car around in the Horizon games and jump cliffs/danger signs or do drifts. Soooooooo much fun to be had past the street racing. Your nephew could even just go for a steady drive through either london (Forza Horizon 4) or Australia
(Forza Horizon 3) as both countries look amazing especially with HDR 4k displays

Then for Forza Horizon 3 you have the Hot Wheels and Blizzard Mountain expansions (the latter being my fave) as well as the Lego Expansion for Forza Horizon 4. So there us enough to keep him busy and to improve upon for a while.
