Crashing every mission

Warhammer 40,000: Darktide Technical Support
1

Crashing every mission back to desktop.
AMD Ryzen 5 5600x
32 GB RAM
Geforce RTX 2080 TI
Win 11

What I already tried without avail:
-Running game on low graphics, without DLSS or frame generation and no raytracing
-Upgraded and Downgraded GPU Drivers
-Upgraded Bios
-Deleted Shader and Verified Game files
-Changed worker count (tried all numbers)
-Disabled portraits rendering
-Ran Memtest to rule out faulty RAM

On a side note: Half of the time the reconnect is not working. I load back into the game and no prompt for reconnect is offered.

Crashing every mission back to desktop.

Sorry to hear this @skyvahaerie

All of your logs show an Access Violation crash <<Crash>>Access violation (0xc0000005)

Unfortunately, there aren’t any clear indicators as to why, and you’ve exhausted all of the usual solutions. I can only point you towards our crash solutions here:

If the crashes persist and you’re unable to find a resolution, then I’d be happy to contact Steam on your behalf and request a refund. I appreciate this isn’t an ideal outcome, but please let me know if it’s something you wish to do.
