heres the fix below wich worked for my Ryzen 9 5950x

Go to task manager and look for steam32bit and right click it then select go to details.


right click steam.exe , set affinity


then untick every cores except 0 up to 10. (To undo these changes just click the top option to enable all cores again in the affinity menu)


I personally dont understand why this fix works.
Link below is the source i've read, it advises to use only four cores to avoid fps drops however i have been running the game fine on 10. Anything past ten cores crashed the app at startups.
