Forza Horizon 4 keeps crashing on start.

Hi, yesterday I got the xbox gamepass for PC. The main reason for this was to get access to Forza Horizon 4, but when I finally downloaded it and tried to launch it, it didn't work. I've looked around on the forums and I haven't found any fixes yet. I tried uninstalling MSI afterburner, resetting my save data (didn't work cuz I had never played it before). I have a good enough pc: GTX 1050 Ti, Ryzen 5 2600X, 8gb ram, 500GB ssd, etc. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game countless times.

Nothing worked. 

I tried using Event Viewer, these are the logs:

Faulting application name: ForzaHorizon4.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5d8e8039

Faulting module name: ForzaHorizon4.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x5d8e8039

Exception code: 0xc0000005

Fault offset: 0x00000000005b15d4

Faulting package full name: Microsoft.SunriseBaseGame_1.351.461.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe

Faulting package-relative application ID: SunriseReleaseFinal

I tried disabling development mode in Windows Powershell. I tried going on an administrator account to try it on there, still didn't launch. I tried 

Installing the game on my laptop that I use for college. Same error codes, none of the fixes worked on there either.

Could anyone please help me with this? I'm tired of going through the same Forum posts.

    This is ridiculous, I sought the solution almost everywhere possible. And still nothing.

    It's funny that my problems also started after upgrading to an Rx 590, now i can't play the game.

    Ridiculous... this is clearly an issue with the base game file for users who PAID for the game - and something tells me it has to do with the Windows Store...

    I've never owned a game that has had this kind of problem before... Anti-cheat, online multiplayer, etc... never had issues like this. This is the first, and probably LAST, game I will ever buy through the Windows store.

    I am getting the same error in Event Viewer as well, been having it for a couple of months. I'm just using it on PC though, tried everything Forza Horizon 4 support told me to do, reinstalled my computer as well. Still nothing... Funny thing is, the Forza Horizon 4 demo is working just fine.

    Any updates on this?

    I feel like I'm losing money the longer this goes on...
