For Steam:

• Launch Steam > Click on Library.
• Right-click on F1 Manager 2022 from the list of installed games.
• Now, click on Properties > Go to Local Files.

• Click on Verify Integrity of Game Files.

3. Launch the Game in Windowed Mode

Try launching the game in Windowed display mode to check for the issue if the above methods don’t work for you. A weird bug with Unreal Engine may cause such issues whatsoever that neither allows the system to launch the game nor it shows any specific reason as well. To do so:

For Steam:

• Open the Steam client and go to Library.
• Right-click on F1 Manager 2022 > Select Properties.
• In the General section, click on Set Launch Options.
• Next, copy & paste the following command-line argument:

 -windowed

• Make sure to save changes and try running the game again to check for the error.

For Epic Games Launcher:

• Open the Epic Games Launcher > Click on Settings.
• Now, click on the F1 Manager 2022 game from the list to select it.
• Make sure to tick mark the Additional Command-Line Arguments checkbox to enable it.
• Then type -windowed and run the game to check the issue.

4. Use Command Line Arguments

It’s highly recommended to use command line arguments on the game launcher to check whether the game is running on the DirectX 11 version or not. Sometimes your PC and the graphics card might not be able to use DirectX12 features properly. So, try using the DirectX 11 version for the game. Plenty of players have found this trick helpful so you should also try it out.

For Steam:

• Launch the Steam client > Click on Library.
• Right-click on F1 Manager 2022 from the left pane.
• Select Properties > Click on the General tab.
• Click on SET LAUNCH OPTIONS… > Make sure to type -dx11.
• Now, go back to the library section, and run the game.

For Epic Games Launcher:

• Open the Epic Games Launcher > Click on Settings.
• Now, click on the F1 Manager 2022 game from the list to select it.
• Make sure to tick mark the Additional Command-Line Arguments checkbox to enable it.
• Then type -dx11 and run the game to check for the issue.

5. Close Background Processes

If some third-party services or processes are running in the background and consuming a lot of system resources then the chances are quite high that you may receive some issues with the game launching or performance, etc. It’s better to simply locate and close those unnecessary background processes by following the steps below:

• Press the Ctrl + Shift + Esc keys to open Task Manager.
• Click on the Processes tab > Click to on the task to select it that you want to close.
• Now, click on End Task to close the process manually.
• Make sure to do the same steps for each task individually that you don’t want to run in the background.
• Once all is done, just restart your computer to change effects immediately.
• Finally, you can try launching the F1 Manager 2022 game to check for the Unreal Crash error.

6. Update F1 Manager 2022

We should also recommend you check for the game update manually at your end via the Steam client or Epic Games Launcher to ensure there is no outdated game version conflicting with the game launching. An outdated game patch version can trigger several potential issues that might trigger crashes whatsoever. To do this:

For Steam:

• Open Steam and go to Library.
• Click on F1 Manager 2022 from the left pane > Steam will automatically search for the available update.
• If there is an update available, click on Update.
• Make sure to wait for some time until the update completes.
• Once done, ensure to reboot the PC to apply changes.

For Epic Games Launcher:

• Open the Epic Games Launcher > Head over to Library.
• Now, click on the three dots icon next to F1 Manager 2022.
• Make sure the Auto Update option is turned on.

7. Restore Default to Overclocked CPU or GPU

Sometimes overclocked CPU or GPU on the PC might cause conflicts with the other hardware which may trigger a bottleneck issue. It’s better to temporarily disable or restore the overclocked CPU/GPU to the factory default so that you can check out the potential reason behind the crashing issue. There are multiple tools available online to adjust overclocked CPU or GPU on the PC such as MSI Afterburner, Riva Tuner, AMD Ryzen Master, EVGA Precision X, etc.
