Re: Game Broken After Windows 11 22H2 Update

More error information on whatever is happening here. 

I've tried the following to resolve this:

Reinstalled the game

Reinstalled the game on a different drive

Reinstalled the EA App

Tried running both the EA app and Wild Hearts in admin mode

Tried running Wild Hearts with full screen optimization off, tried it in Windows 8 compatibility mode

Ran CHKDSK on all drives.

Cleared EA app cache

Cleared Steam cache

Updated Nvidia drivers

Updated C+++ redistributables

Tried literally every combination of NVidia settings

Tried literally every combination of game settings

Turned off Steam, EA, and Nvidia overlays 

Checked Windows 11 for errors (there were none)

Tried the game at different resolutions, tried changing the sound devices, tried using different monitors

10-20 fps persists no matter what I've tried and I keep getting those error messages so I'm at the mercy of a patch to resolve this issue. It's a problem specifically with the EXE and doesn't appear to be happening because of a driver. Because it's happening even during the KT logo and loading screens, it's not on the GPU end.

UPDATE: I gave up and roll back the 22H2 update and sure enough, game works flawlessly. All I can assume is there's some jank happening with Windows security and Denuvo or something. I'll just wait a while before I bother updating to 22H2 so I don't have to deal with this haha
