bit of a long shot, don’t think i’m breaching community rules? but feel free to let me know if there’s a better place for this

i’m running a Ryzen 5800X + Radeon 6900 XT ( Adrenalin 25.4.1) + Windows 10 (22H2 19045.5737)

and i’m getting the following error ~3 secs after launch

'The game has crashed Error code: 0xc0000096 ’

i’ve tried restarting: updating Adrenalin, running as admin, running a repair operation on the game install, removed sl.pcl.dll

has anyone else ran into this error and was able to address it?

EDIT:fixed apparently Oblivion Remastered won’t run on a secondary drive, moving it to the same drive as my OS fixed it, who’d have guessed

    C:\Program Files\

    Lol. Don’t install games there. Hell, don’t install games on the same drive as Windows.

      Windows: you installed programs in a folder called program files? Unpossible!

      Also look at mister money bags here with multiple drives

        As someone else said, installing things outside of Program Files is generally only necessary if they were made for XP or older, and the developers didn’t test on Vista or newer or read the bit of the Windows documentation that said not to write to an application’s installation directory because it might not work on future versions that was there since the early nineties. Regular Oblivion works fine in Program Files (although it makes it more of a pain to mod) and the Remaster was obviously made post-Vista.

        All that said, none of this is relevant because you’ve got the Windows App version, which uses a completely different system and works in a partial sandbox so doesn’t interact with the rest of the computer like a traditional program would.

    The game seems to be very sensitive to CPU (and possibly memory) overclocking and was crashing for me the same way until I went back to default settings. Even though everything else had been rock solid, it caused oblivion remaster, stalker 2, and Indiana Jones to crash at launch.

    Double check if your bios is doing any automated overclocking or revert any manual overclocking that you’re doing.

      I can (anecdotally) confirm the overclocking sensitivity. Although it seems to be more that this game just REALLY pushes hardware if you let it which is naturally gonna draw out overclocking instabilities.

    The exception code you are getting appears to indicate some code is trying to execute something very low level (e.g. direct device access) when it isn’t allowed.

    This isn’t a widespread issue, so it seems reasonable to assume that it is specific to your machine.

    My guesses are:

    • Corrupt game files, try deleting the user data for the game. Not sure where that lives.

    • Corrupt install but I think you’ve addressed that.

    • Corrupt windows, a scan disk check might repair something.

    • Corrupt drivers:

    • Fresh install of GPU drivers, using amd’s tool or ddu.

    • Update chipset drivers if there are any.

    • Disable or uninstall anything that controls additional devices. E.g. led or fan controllers like Armoury crate or MSI afterburner.

    • Any other app that injects itself into the process. Game overlay, antivirus. Amd adrenaline does this, as can steam and gamebar.
