    Yes I do (on E, actually), I can't install it on C as it is a 120gb SSD and has no space for a 45gb game

    I have to add that I played the game normally for about a week, with no game breaking issues as this one.

    Is the EA Play app also on the same drive and all the save files being saved to the same drive? I've had some players report crashing on the D drive but once uninstalling and reinstalling on the C drive the issue was resolved.

    I'm not sure. I'll check that later. But what do you suggest, that I put EA app and my saves also on E? Or that I keep all of them in C.

    Because I might be able to put EA app on C, as it uses way less HD space than madden. And my saves are probably going to C by default, can I change that?

    If it is only crashing when you are loading Franchise mode saves it feels like if the app, title, and potentially saves are all located in different folders this is leading to a performance issue. If possible, I would put it all on C if you can as that has helped avoid crashes for other PC players.

    As I said, it'll not be possible for me to install the game on the C drive. Is there a way for me to change the default save location? I don't know how to do that

    I'm referring to the saves location (my franchise save file). By default they are saved in "C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\Madden NFL 22\Saves"

    Can I change that?

    The download location will be where future saves will go. What I would do is move the save files that exist on the C drive to the folder you have Madden on for your other drive and make sure any duplicate files on the other drive are removed.
