Forza Horizon 5 has stopped working

ilya molchanov · Mar 29, 2023

Hi! When launching Forza Horizon 5, I ran into a problem - a window appears, the content of which is as follows: "To continue the game saved in the profile, you need to download the latest update. Log in to the Xbox network to restart the game and install the update." The game was purchased on Steam. Windows 10. I tried to solve the problem, but to no avail. (I started the game offline; unlinked the Microsoft account in the Game Bar application; I also reinstalled the game, but to no avail)

I really hope for your help. Thanks

:)

Hello again, try to follow the procedures below.

Using System File Checker in Windows

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/usi...

CHKDSK

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server...

1 - Type cmd (Command Prompt) in the search bar of the Start menu and then click Run as administrator.

2 - Enter chkdsk /f/x/r/v

The system will ask you if you want to run CHKDSK after restarting the system, press Y on your keyboard and then type "Exit" and restart the computer, it will scan in DOS mode.

Hello Ilya, are you playing on Pc, what would be your operating system, Win 10 or 11?

Have you checked if you have the latest version of Windows installed, at 22H2?

See which version of Windows 10/11 you have

Also, make sure all Xbox Apps are up to date in the store, and make sure you have the Xbox Companion App installed, it works with the Xbox App.

I'm pretty sure. Only Forza horizon 5 has this problem. I downloaded and installed Forza horizon 4 again. There is no problem. Games on other platforms also work normally.Forza horizon 5 can only enter the game when the network is disconnected, and then turn on the network, Can play normally.
