Game crashing in BR/Redsec first 2minutes (Gauntlet works fine)

Everything was working fine for me until today (played up to 5 hours yesterday with no problem), but today for no reason at all, every time I start a game it randomly crashes after 1 to 2 minutes with no error code or anything, straight to the desktop. (keep in mind I updated nothing and changed nothing in the last 24h, I didn't even turn off my pc from yesterday) I tried every fix possible online, nothing works. 

Played +220 hours and i was grinding the battelepass. 

In the CrushDumps screenshot, it shows some previous crashes when alt-tabbing or other non important stuff, but starting today u see the crashes logs.

I played after the last update multiple games and everything was fine. ( Again there was no windows update, no graphic card update and no game update) just randomly started to happen every game so I can't play at all.

 

Troubleshooting already performed:

Verified game files via Steam

Reset Battlefield user/config folder

Reinstalled EA Anti-Cheat (clean uninstall + reinstall)

Disabled all overlays (Steam, Discord, NVIDIA)

No overclocking; stable hardware

VRAM usage normal (~5.7 GB on RTX 3070 Ti)

Tested multiple BR playlists (Duo & Squad)

Issue persists

    I fixed it myself, a file from the game named Cas_16 or something and it almost damaged my disk as the file is corrupted but the steam repair doesn't consider it broken, until i brought a different disk and try to move the game but every time that specific file blocks the whole moving so I skipped it (I press skip on that file) and repaired it from steam in the new SSD so basically downloading it again. Then I removed the old bf6 folder from my SSD (the one with damaged file that the pc and steam don't know about it being damaged), and then I played my game normally.

    After that, I even moved everything back to my original SSD with that new "Cas_16" file which is not corrupted and it's movable now and the game worked fine with no crushes even on my old SSD. So it was something from the game files that almost broke my SSD and crashes the game, also the crush or the damaged file might be related to ea-anticheat scanning the game files mid game and not approving on the game own files somehow which then damages it.
