Crash on startup! Any help would be appreciated

Basic Info:

Platform: Steam
Issue Type: Crash
Game Mode: =GAME MODE= N/A
Server Type: =SERVER TYPE= N/A
Map: =MAP= N/A
Server Name: =SERVER NAME= N/A
Mods: =MODS= N/A


Bug Description:

crash on launch. new player here. game bought thru steam & launched thru funcom launcher. I have done numerous troubleshooting methods- fresh install, driver updates, windows updates, verify integrity, battleye reinstall, ran as admin, compatibility mode, double checked directx & visual c++, & double checked my network. My logs say “sleeping for http request” several times before they just end. Event viewer gives exception code 0xc00000ff, which implies stack overflow issue- but I don’t think I have any mods or anything downloaded… as I am new & have never played before. If anybody could give me any pointers or anything, that’d be great.


Bug Reproduction:

Literally just launched the game.

Same Im a veteran player and this crash at launch has started for em too since 2 days now… I do use mods and I ve removed all mods and restarted and relaunched and verifyed and also reinstalled whole game and again restarted without mods and yet its still having game crash at launch… the popu up window for fatal error shows up everytime I start game now form launcher…
usually veryfying files and restarting pc would fix it but this time its persistant… event drivers are updated… done everything and yet it keeps crashing at launch.
its been 2 days now and am not able to start game…

Found the issue… Corrupted save game files… had to delete my save game files and its working properly now…
Probably best to make backs ups of save game files that are not corrupted and functioning well currently… from time to time just in case…
this was my issue which I solved on my own not sure if it will help you though but letting you know what I did to fix my problem which I had with the fatal error reports at launch of game…

my save gme folder though had a lot of old stuff saved since 3 or 4 years back so I just deleted all of it and started fresh save game… but in my case I am a solo / coop player currently so it was sorted out by myself for my gameplays
not sure how it wil work with server related or multiplayer issues… if any…

i have never played or even gotten into the game games menus before, so no thats not the issue for me unfortunately.

i believe it is actually a driver issue for me. not sure how to fix it tho, cuz ive uninstalled & reinstalled them several times now
