If you have a modern PC with Windows 11 installed these steps may help.
First check that neither your GPU or CPU is overheating at the time of crashing.
Secondly check that no process is running in the background hogging the CPU or GPU resources.
Sometimes it is simply an unfixed bug that the developer has not resolved.
Check online if anyone else has the same issue or not.
- Check that the game is closed off
- Find out the process name for your game (e.g.
game.exe
) using Windows Task Manager or online
Often this behaviour is caused by Windows 11 being too overzealous with it's exploit detection.
To exclude a trusted game executable:
- Open up
Exploit Protection
from the start menu - Click the
Programme settings
header - Press the
+
(plus) button forAdd programme to customise
- Click the
Add by programme name
item - Type in the game's process name e.g.
Control_DX12.exe
- Click the
Add
button - In the
Edit
dialog findBlock low integrity images
section - Checkmark the
Override system settings
checkbox found directly below it - Toggle on the toggle control directly below the checkbox
- Click the
Apply
button - Close off the window when done
- Play your game again
The above steps have fixed crashes for at least three games in my experience.
Good luck!
