Can you upload anything so this error can be observed?
Still never witnessed it to see exactly what is going on.

the same happens to me, I've tried everything, I don't know why, but FC25 opens normally, F1 24 doesn't load, as they are games from the same company

    I've already reinstalled Windows, Steam, EA app, and nothing solved it, the game just doesn't open and every time I go to check the files, it detects these 3 files, it's been 6 hours since I tried doing everything and the game just doesn't work
