forza horizon 5 d3d12 issues

i usually play fh5 on my xbox but i want to use my pc and every time i use it it crashes immediately, i guarantee if i use d3d11 it will work since my pc for some reason doesn't like directx12, every time i launch a game on d3d12 it crashes, when i change it to d3d11 its fine but forza horizon 5 on xbox app doesn't have a changeable directx setting from the files so idk what to do

Hi,
I'm Rodrigo and I'll help you.
Unfortunately, this game does not have an option to run in D3d11 mode ( DirectX11). The solution is to try to fix your issue of games crashing on DirectX12.

I recommend you clean reinstall your graphics drivers. Use DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) com completely uninstall your display driver then, download and reinstall your graphics driver from the device maker tool/website.
Download DDU:

If you need help on this process, please, let me know your graphics adapter make and model.

Since the display driver reinstall did not work, I recommend you do an in-place upgrade, to reinstall the system files and the problems with DX12.
Download the Windows 11 ISO here:

https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/win...

After downloading the Windows 11 ISO file, double-click it to open and run setup .exe. The in-place upgrade will keep your files and apps and they are and reinstall the system.
