### Issue Type (Required):

Crash - During Play

### Issue Description (Required):

Hey there. So I have this crash that has been happening for ages. When I’m in the Mourningstar and I alt+tab to check on something and leave the game running in the background, after a few seconds it always crashes. I tried different games so I could know if it’s my card’s fault but it only happens on Darktide.

Any idea?

Thanks!

Try this (a solution to a problem I discovered by accident 2 years later)  
I just had a different crash log, but the symptoms were the same.
