That string you’re seeing isn’t the error itself; it’s the command-line arguments for the Unreal Engine Crash Reporter. The fact that the game is displaying this instead of a proper error means it’s failing at a very low level during launch.
Your hardware is solid. This is a software conflict or a dependency issue. Here are the most likely fixes, in order.
-
Disable All Overlays: This is the most common cause. Turn off overlays from:
- Discord
- NVIDIA GeForce Experience (ShadowPlay)
- MSI Afterburner / RivaTuner Statistics Server (RTSS)
- Any other software that hooks into the game’s rendering process.
-
Perform a Clean Graphics Driver Install: A corrupted driver can cause engine-specific failures.
- Use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) in Safe Mode to completely remove your current NVIDIA drivers.
- Reboot and install the latest driver package from NVIDIA’s website.
-
Reinstall Essential Runtimes: Unreal Engine relies heavily on these.
- Go to “Apps & Features” and uninstall all “Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable” packages.
- Download and install the single, official “Visual C++ Redistributable” package (vc_redist.x64.exe) directly from Microsoft.
If the issue persists after these steps, the next step would be to check for the actual crash log located in %LOCALAPPDATA%\[GameName]\Saved\Crashes. That log will contain the specific exception code.
