I have an issue with Forza Horizon 3 where if I try to launch the game, it instantly crashes. There is no popup for failure of any sort and it just looks as if nothing happened, just as if I closed the game right away. My computer is faster than needed to run the game and is updated to the newest version of Windows 10. I have seen many ways to fix the issue but none work. If anyone knows how to fix this, that could help not just me but allot of other people.

    I just bought Forza Horizon 3 and CAN'T PLAY IT. Same issue as everyone here. I also just made sure my only microsoft account is verfied in Windows 10 but that doesn't do anything for me, the best part is that I could play the Forza Horizon 3 Demo without end a few months prior, without any issue at all!

    The "fix" of downloading some random game from the store and then starting Forza Horizon 3 doesn't work for me at all. My graphics drivers are up to date, my specs are:

    GTX 1070 TI

    i7 8700K

    16GB DDR4 RAM at 3200MHz

    2 SSD, 1 HDD (all from different manufacturers)

    I also tried the move trick to every disc it didn't help at all, I also reinstalled and fully downloaded the 55gb three times now without anything getting better. The best I could see was the loading ring for just about one second and the text, just once before crashing, I couldn't even replicate this horrible state. NOTHING WORKS. I now come to understand why Amazon is having so many 1 star reviews with everyone and their mother complaining about this, fix your game Microsoft this is an insult to your customers!

    EVERY other game I have played on my PC works perfectly fine, be it new or old, everything works fine, 20 games in total that I have played, installed and enjoyed within the last couple of months I have this PC in this very configuration.

    *I'm now downloading the Forza DEMO again to see if that starts, it would be insane if it did but I have a feeling it will...

    All I can recommend is call 18004MYXBOX for more assistance. It worked the way it did for me and some others but I have no clue how to help if itdoesn't. Sorry. Best of luck!
