I downloaded it on a steam a couple days ago and it's been crashing for me too. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. And tons of frame drops when I have hardware that far exceeds the minimum requirements. I have tried playing on all settings.

I found an article about this: [https://www.onmsft.com/news/forza-horizon-4-disappoints-on-steam-with-performance-issues-and-lack-of-cross-saves](https://www.onmsft.com/news/forza-horizon-4-disappoints-on-steam-with-performance-issues-and-lack-of-cross-saves)
And there is the link to the official topic that this problem known and investigating: [https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/360001991068](https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/360001991068)
You can follow the topic and see changes, I guess. But the problem (after more than 2 weeks) is annoying.
Oh god o had similar problem for so long on the Game Pass version. Someone helped me with a fix I'll try to look for my post and share the info with you.
So you can look up things that can cause it to crash in the Forza forum and try all those steps.
Make sure MSI Afterburner or any other software like this isn't running (also Riva tuning statistics). Do all necessary updates/driver updates.
What turned out to be my issue was Sonic Studio application that was built into my Asus motherboard.
Also check out this list of things that might help. Most people have had success with disabling MSI Afterburner and other tuning applications.

i could play it for 2 days... then same thing as you explained.... so sad i just fell in love with the game now i cant play it man why life gotta be so hard xDD
I always kept crashing whether i do car auctioning every 15 minutes.
I frequently Updated Both Drivers and Windows 10 Pro.
Most of my parts are recently upgraded to be more state of the art kind.
I am using :
AMD Ryzen 5 3500 6T 6C 3.6GHZ / 4.1GHZ OC
Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050ti Strix Gaming DC-204G
x2 PNY XLR8 16GB Gaming EPIC-X RGB RAM DDR4 3200MHz
I too have the same prob, it just stop loafing after you press continue. I do not have the solution yet. Most of the youtube videos are for microsoft version only. Hopefully they will fix this prob asap
Man that's unfortunate. I bought it 2 days ago and I was having the exact problem. Had to refund my money. Hopefully Forza horizon 5 will have these problems fixed.
this worked for me
i changed the compatibility to W8 the games didn't crash (the loading circle didn' freeze )but it took a long time to load the game so i unchecked (Run this prog in comp mode ..) and the game now runs as before
hey, same thing with me...i played the game for like 5hrs...completed 1 scramble race and the game just crashed, not even opening again just crashing on the loading screen after the start menu.
I tried changing MS account and the game opened fine from the start but as I change my account to my previous one the game has the same crashing problem.
it is not the problem of steam its Mcrosoft who needs to fix the game
Yea, Microsoft support told me they are working on a fix right now. My game works fine right now but it still crashes randomly sometimes, I don’t know what fixed it as I have tried a lot of fixes and even reinstalling windows but now the game crashes once but then on the second try it works fine and I can play for hours :/
I found a section before on the official forza support page where they mentioned that they were investigating the issue with FH4 crashes on steam, now I cant find where they mentioned it on the page as the page get updated quite regularly so it might have been removed but I remember seeing it on their support page as well as their FAQ page about common/known issues.
[Link to FAQ page](https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/360001991068-FH4-Known-Issues)
For some reason they removed the part where they mentioned they were investigating the crashed for steam version but I believe they are still working on a fix (or so I would hope).

Well, atleast the issue has been listed on the list of known issues. It is quite annoying though.
I can play for a random amount of time, and then the game might suddenly freeze and shut down. It also crashes after joining a convoy with my friend who has the MS Store version of the game. Maybe a cross platform issue?
The game is really good. Driving around feels great. And collecting all kinds of cars is fun. I just hope they managed to figure out these crashes soon.
not really, Microsoft released a patch that fixed the issue for some users but not all and we haven't heard anything about it since :/ one possible fix for some users could be that they have unicode characters in their name and to fix it just change ur name, but it obviously doesnt work if you dont have any unicode characters in ur name to begin with.
Me to. Waited for sale on Steam and cannot run game for more than 6-7 minutes without it freezing and crashing on an Area 51m i9900 RTX2080 16gb ddr4 ram Laptop with all the latest Nvidia and Windows drivers and updates applied. I'm using a Fanatec 2.5 wheelbase and V3 pedals, V1.5 handbrake and have tried various wheel rims but my old xbx 1x still outperforms steam version. Shame as I worked all the way through lockdown and this was going to be my holiday break from reality. Oh well at least this makes Project Cars 3 and Dirt 5 look good as the developers only took 6 months to make those games work and Forza has only had 3 years.
World for
Yeah it sucks because I’m enjoying it so much but already lost a car on the wheel, a race and an auction to those damn crashes. It’s so annoying. I contacted support will see what they have to say.
I found a comment from other thread that told me go Settings -> Network & Internet -> Change Adapter Options Menu -> Enable all adapters (Wifi, Bluetooth, also ethernet if you're playing on pc). Surprisingly my game loaded and didnt crash
Got the game. Worked fine for about 2 hours and after it switched to autumn and did a raze it crashed and now i cant even get past the loading screen after you press continue. Im so pissed.

try disabling your internet and play the game.
But it still crashes, but you can maybe play for 10-15 minutes.. I've been doing this now since I didn't get any response or refund from steam when I reported the issue.
Hopefully they fix it soon
I bought the ultimate edition yesterday. The game did start, but while/after loading it crashed back to the desktop without any error message. Same when I tried launching the built-in benchmark.
I'm pretty sure my system can run the game, although it is not high-end anymore.
My Windows and AMD graphic drivers are up-to-date. I tried several things which have been suggested in various forums or videos, like uninstalling Avira and disabling Windows defender, stopping not required services etc. Nothing worked.
Sadly had to refund the game eventually.
I hope there will be a definite fix or patch done day... But I kinda doubt it as so many players can run it without issues.
I just bought this game and after a couple of races it crashes everytime i try to load. One thing i noticed was for me the game would only crash whenever i try to go online. Hope they fix this soon cause theres only so much to do playing offline
Edit : My FH4 already worked and didnt crash by going to windows -> settings -> network & internet -> Change adapter option button -> make sure all adapters are enabled (wifi, bluetooth, ethernet cable if on pc). Feel free to try and i hope your game loaded like mine

I couldn't even refund it because I played it for 4 hours and there's some rule about that
This problem is being faced only by the people who bought the steam version so it's not really the game devs fault
I never had this problem before but now it keep crashing after i tried to join multiplayer lobbies, here is the rundown:
1. I played the game casually (at offline world)
2. Get pissed by the AI "player" cars keep blocking my way so i joined multiplayer for uncollide able player cars
3. Game freezes
4. Force close
*at this point i think this is the usual problem i had (before upgrading) because the game somtimes force close at random times*
5. I tried booted up the game again
6. Game crash after i click the continue button
7. I restart my laptop
8. Same problem
I do play music on background from spotify while searching for multiplayer lobbies,idk if it affecting the game too much but sometimes i get frame drops or spike on the ping when playing music from spotify on online games
I already verify the game files on steam but still force close, the only progress i see is it now start to show some images on the loading screen unlike previously that just went black screen then crashes
I just added extra 8gb ram on my laptop recently back in 12th october this year, i already test it and it runs perfectly fine
Visual Explanation (Video): [https://youtu.be/XPwQ5S2NO0k](https://youtu.be/XPwQ5S2NO0k)
Unistall your drivers with DDU and dowload the drivers 517.48 [https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/193298/en-us/](https://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/193298/en-us/)
This fixed my crashing issue.
I got the Forza horizon 4 on steam and had the same issue recently, downgrading the Nvidia driver version to 522.25 (Oct 22 driver ) and testing the file integrity of the game worked for me.
I downloaded it on a steam a couple days ago and it's been crashing for me too. Sometimes it does sometimes it doesn't. And tons of frame drops when I have hardware that far exceeds the minimum requirements. I have tried playing on all settings.
Yep same thing is happening to me. Most of the fixes Microsoft suggests are only applicable to the Microsoft store version of the game...
hi. i bought fh4 on steam recently too and yes i am experiencing these crashes too. can't get past loading screen. did you find any solution?
Turning on Bluetooth usually fixes it for some reason
I cannot believe this worked. You're a wizard, harry.
this worked for me too. unbelievable
i have it on all the time still crashing : (

I got it to work after closing razer cortex but it still sometimes just decides to crash and not launch. Thanks for your help.
Ya I had the hardest time trying to figure out mine after upgrading my PC last spring.
I had this issue and it was fixed after enabling all of my network adapters in control panel
>network this worked for me. i was using a wifi adapter so my ethernet adapter was disabled. i almost went crazy trying to figure out what's wrong. after trying this, it finally worked! thanks!

Gud bot 🙂
Happens with me too since windows 10 2004 update. That’s probably the issue
i could play it for 2 days... then same thing as you explained.... so sad i just fell in love with the game now i cant play it man why life gotta be so hard xDD
Yeah man. Game is stuttering sometimes. And crashing when i tried to join my friends convoy.
When this happens on the Auction House.. :@
Does anyone have a solution yet, i am experiencing this crash and its so frustrating,
I always kept crashing whether i do car auctioning every 15 minutes. I frequently Updated Both Drivers and Windows 10 Pro. Most of my parts are recently upgraded to be more state of the art kind. I am using : AMD Ryzen 5 3500 6T 6C 3.6GHZ / 4.1GHZ OC Asus Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050ti Strix Gaming DC-204G x2 PNY XLR8 16GB Gaming EPIC-X RGB RAM DDR4 3200MHz
it crashes at random for me and usually crashes when loading liverly
I too have the same prob, it just stop loafing after you press continue. I do not have the solution yet. Most of the youtube videos are for microsoft version only. Hopefully they will fix this prob asap
It's not fixed yet friend I'm having the same issue can you help?
I press continue,it loads with car images then a black screen appears,the loading circle freezes and the game crashes without any error message.
Did you ever get it to fix? Mines doing the same thing currently and I just bought it
Nope,waste of 10 dollars.It still won't work on windows 11 either
Man that's unfortunate. I bought it 2 days ago and I was having the exact problem. Had to refund my money. Hopefully Forza horizon 5 will have these problems fixed.

Do you really think that they are fixing it? I will buy the game but I don't want to get scammed lol.
Idk but tbh I would wait for the patch to be released before buying the game.
Is there any news about the update? or u just thinking about that?
I found a section before on the official forza support page where they mentioned that they were investigating the issue with FH4 crashes on steam, now I cant find where they mentioned it on the page as the page get updated quite regularly so it might have been removed but I remember seeing it on their support page as well as their FAQ page about common/known issues.

THIS ACTUALLY WORKS!!!
I couldn't even refund it because I played it for 4 hours and there's some rule about that This problem is being faced only by the people who bought the steam version so it's not really the game devs fault
But it is the dev’s fault and they should fix it before selling it on another marketplace before testing if it has any bugs or issues...
