It ran great until I bought the Ultimate Add-Ons bundle, now it simply crashes after showing the splash screen for 30 seconds.

Edit 12/13/2019: After installing the latest update last night, the game seemed to start fine. I will continue to update this post with status.
Edit 12/14/2019: The game no longer starts.
Edit 12/28/2019: See user realcoda's post on page 5 for a solution. Be sure to back up everything on your PC before attempting as it involves editing your registry.
Edit 2/19/2020: The game runs after today's patch.
Edit 2/21/2020: Today's patch has reintroduced the original issue.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Yeah I realized this on another one of my devices which only has the base game installed (No DLCs), the game works perfectly on there and the content seemed to have been added anyways. But the moment I downloaded one of the expansions it broke the launcher. Something tells me it's double installing over itself which is why the game won't launch properly to begin with.
yes there is definately a problem when it comes to the add ons. ive tried everything for two weeks now, but i am awaitng an email from an expert who has promised to investigate with the game makers and he says xbox live has no fault,microsoft also have tried and they think it is the game. Forza are not back until 6 jan. but the game developers will be sorting it hopefuly. They all pass the buck. i will post any update
If only Forza would recognise it as a game problem, instead they don't and continue to press that it's our PC's and not on their end, and who knows, it could be our PC's, but only because their game messed it up to begin with, with the way it handles DLC expansions and probably how it incorporates them into the game during install.
Hi yes totally agree. Microsoft have tested my pc and even installed latest version of windows 10,and they said it is not the pc. Xbox live have checked and there is no problem with them so it has to be the game. We just keep going round in circles with this. But i will not be beaten.
Really hope somebody figures this out, I bought the game and am also having an issue. Installed and haven't even managed to play it yet :( I'm not even getting any errors in event viewer though? Okay I found the event log lol
