Game crashing after splash screen
@teapack14523 same happening here, i get the sea of thieves logo, then black screen, then return to windows :(
@TeaPack14523
I don't know how it's for Jesus's sake you ask this, I'm sure people would have helped you for your own sake.@Kallistaz
Did either of you uninstall and reinstall?Which system? Windows like Kallistaz?
If so are you the primary purchaser of SoT and signed in to windows as that microsoft account?
Can you check updates in the Store?(I noticed this morning xbox identity provider was updated... I wonder if it has to do with it.)
I had the same exact issue several patches ago. Somehow during the download/install something became corrupt and I was unable to repair. I ended up just installing windows again to clear out all the MS game garbage.
Here is everything I was told to try before I just reinstalled windows.
I just received support response. (Not Verified Yet)

Fixed: I just went ahead and "reset"/re-installed windows.When I have those symptoms, I need to uninstall my Cisco AMP software (which is a malware protection software)
If I have that uninstalled, I can run the game.
Be on the lookout for antimalware software keeping the game from running. Sometimes disabling it helps.. sometimes a full uninstall is needed.
But those were my exact same symptoms.

Having the same issue.
Game has worked great before and I've not played it for a few months, came back to try the patch and this....Reinstalling the game now in hope that would fix it but it's a slow download -_-
Going to give that language thingy a try and see if it fixes it (already using English - United States though).As this thread was a year old and revived today, it will now be locked.
