While fixing crashes, you need to remember that there are various roots of this problems. It means that solution for one person will not work for someone else. In our article we will present you some of the most popular fixes. All of these workarounds helped community members:

  1. Update graphics drivers (or in rarer cases role them back).
  2. Launch the game through the file not a launcher, use .exe file in your game directory.
  3. Use an older save, not the newest one.
  4. Delete UserSettings.json file in AppData\Local\CD Projekt Red\Cyberpunk 2077 (if you can’t find it, search %LOCALAPPDATA% in Windows search). The game should create a new file upon launch, but we recommend doing a backup anyway.
