My friends wants to play the game with me but it keeps crashing on his computer for some reason. My game works perfectly fine. We both got it from the Microsoft store, but whenever he launches the game, it crashes on the logo screen. I went on the game forum but found no solution.

    This method works for some people, but not all. I have seen this solution on the game forum, it still doesn't work for most people.

    @Microsoft when will this annoying problem be fixed? i bought this game yesterday and i just cant play it as it keeps crashing on startup. Becausse at this point i payed for a game that doesnt start at all. VERRY frustrating!

    fyi everything in my rig is updated, so that shouldnt be the issue.

    Hi i finally resolve this problem, looks like is a problem with the localization system of the game in the recent patch, try this:

    Go to languaje preferences, and change it to English united states, ant the region to the same, if you alread have it, just download and put another english *english from australia for xample, and the region too... download the spanish spain or mexico pack too, restart de pc an try to open you game with the new languaje, if it works just take back yor original languaje settings and ready.

    This worked for me. Downloaded the English US language pack and installed it and then SOD2 ran just fine.
