My game crahes (with no error or something, it just closes the game) after the 3rd ride in the pro logue (after the Porsche drive, when the movie about the pink birds fly away and the next scene is the road from the sky).

RTX3070\

AMD 5800H CPU

16GB

2 times the crash on the same place. Tried to reboot, etc. Doesnt work, didnt try reinstall yet, but i doubt that will work (and its 101 GB)....

I also heard that it could be a corrupted user profile, since it booted correctly on a different local account, but i'm not sure as FH5 is the only game that has problems.
