===Random Crashes (NVidia Video Cards)===
 
{{ii}} As reported [https://steamcommunity.com/app/1222140/discussions/0/2569815696856072388/ here], this happens constantly if you own an NVidia video card and the latest Nvidia Geforce Game Ready Driver, whether you have the Epic Games or the Steam version.
 
{{Fixbox|description=
 
 
Install version [https://www.nvidia.com/en-gb/drivers/results/160022/ 446.14] of the Nvidia Geforce Game Ready Driver and then:
 
#Restart Windows
 
#Delete the game's cache folder (ShaderCache, located under the main game folder)
 
#Start the game and, after a long wait (depends on your hardware), the shader cache is rebuilt and you'll play without issues
 
This has been verified by many users and works for Steam and Epic Games copies of the game.

Notes

  1. 1.0 1.1 When running this game without elevated privileges (Run as administrator option), write operations against a location below %PROGRAMFILES%, %PROGRAMDATA%, or %WINDIR% might be redirected to %LOCALAPPDATA%\VirtualStore on Windows Vista and later (more details).
  2. 2.0 2.1 File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata/<user-id>/1222140/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (1222140) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.

    Tested for DRM after the June 19, 2020 update by closing the EGS launcher, renaming its app folder and the entirety of the config folders containing Denuvo tokens. Checked for Windows Credentials and found none. The game ran without issues from the .exe apart from the lack of EOS connectivity for the choices stats.
