The game crashes after intro video

As the title says, EA Sports WRC crashes after the intro plays. This happend after the new update. I have an intel arc a750 and at first i thought it was the driver but after 5 hours of trying to fix this (I covered all my bases, I reinstalled the driver, rolled back my driver versions, reinstalled windows), nothing helped. Does anyone have any suggestions to how to fix this?

EDIT: I FOUND A FIX FOR IT! I went into steam->library->right click on wrc->properties->and type "-dx11" in the launch options (without the ""s). I hope they fix whatever is wrong with their dx12 version

    After updated to WRC24, same problem happened on my desktop PC with intel arc a750 graphics card,(and my other laptop with RTX2060 works fine.)

    when launching from steam, after the EA sports and codemaster intro video finishes, the game would shut down itself.

    Maybe it's because A750 couldn't support VR mode? from my other PC I noticed this was a VR mode confirm window came out after intro video, so I guess the game crashed because arc A750 can't support the VR option.

    Same problem here.

    The game just shuts down halfway during the  EA-intro, there is no error-message.

    It was working flawlessly yesterday and the only thing I've done today is to install the latest Windows 10 update.

    (I'm using Steam-version)

    What is going on????

    EDIT.

    Removed the Windows 10 update and now the game is working again!!!

    The update causing the problem is KB5045594.

    unfortunately I am not on windows 10, so I don't know which version I should roll back to there or if  it would fix it.

    I have the same problem. I have EA APP. I've performed the dx11 solution and the game crashes when the first garage picture appears.
