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 process id: 0xad7c

Faulting application start time: 0x01d57abe98e849f3

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.SunriseBaseGame_1.351.461.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\ForzaHorizon4.exe

Faulting module path: C:\Program Files\WindowsApps\Microsoft.SunriseBaseGame_1.351.461.2_x64__8wekyb3d8bbwe\ForzaHorizon4.exe

Report Id: f06b7c2a-5144-4b73-9c86-dde531343cb6

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.

    I think i have the same as yours does the Windows event viewer says faulting module name KERNELBASE.dll after the game crashes?

    FYI, the Series 28 patch from last week fixed my issues and FH4 has been working fine for me.

    Unfortunately my problem does not seem to be the same as yours because the patch did not fix anything for me, mine stopped working correctly last month and the Forza support is not offering any solution
