[PC] Constant EGO Dumper crash when entering any game mode

Product: F1 22
Platform:PC
Summarize your bug I'm getting EGO Dumper crashes when I'm trying to enter the lobby of Career Mode, Time Trial, Solo Grand Prix. It just happened out of nowhere and now I'm unable to enter any sort of races. Restarting Steam or even my PC didn't resolve the issue either. The issue went away by itself once but now its back and isn't going away, rendering the game totally unplayable.
Which area is the bug/glitch in? Driver Career
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? not sure.
What happens when the bug occurs? Game crashes and shows a EGO Dumper dialog box with crash details.
What do you expect to see? I expect to see the game run without crashing

Constant crashing for any game mode that I'm trying to enter.

  • After launching, the screen turns black for 1-2 secs, then Ego Dumper pops up with crash report. I have since updated all my drivers (windows and display). I have checked with running the application as Admin but no luck.

    Verify your game files as follows first: https://help.steampowered.com/en/faqs/view/0C48-FCBD-DA71-93EB

    Then perform the following if the issue persists, thanks.

  • I am also having the exact same problem on PC, I have attempted every measure that has been recommended by EA employees, Code masters employees and fellow players. None of them have made any difference to the problem. It has now been 6 Days since I have had access to the game and I am still only able to access the main menu as trying to enter any form of Offline/Online session results in an EGO DUMPER crash instantaneously as soon as it attempts to load. All my drivers are up to date, my system files have been verified, my game files have been verified, I have tried a multitude of different graphical settings and Video settings, I have tried re-installing the game many time, I have tried playing the game under a Windows 11 Clean Boot Environment and I have tried running the game in safe mode with no-other non-essential applications open in the background. This issue needs to be fixed so many people who have spent a lot of money on this game (including myself) can play this title. Any other advice or updates from the community or Staff/ Moderators would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Fraser.

  • I had the same issue, ego dumper coming randomly, but definitely within 5-10 minutes of playing, in whatever game mode. After trying everything under the sun, I decided I'll try a clean Windows install on a different disk which has solved the problem. Far from ideal, but hopefully they'll have tracked the problem down come the next update.
