For those who, after an update, experience a crash when starting the EA WRC game
You have to go to steam library / steam apps / common / EA WRC / Engine / Binaries / Third party
And modify the file which has the name OPENXR
(you add anything afterwards)

Simply rename the folder

Good morning,
My problem is that the game starts, but it closes during the introduction window. I have resolved it in the following way:
go to the following path -> SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\EA SPORTS WRC\Engine\Plugins
There, you will see two folders: Runtime and Wwise.
Rename the Wwise folder; for example, I named it "Wwise-PROBLEM", and the game now opens without any issues.
I hope this can be of help to you.

problem solved for me, but more by chance: harddrive was overflowing and played up a little, so needed to install a new ssd, wiped everything steam and/or EA related off the old harddrive and the C: drive, put it all on the new drive, works! The so called "customer service" here is beyond sad, I would have never gone to such drastic measures if I didn't have to anyway, so having the game back is none of EAs credit, just pure coincidence.

Interesting there seems to be no common fix ...
renaming the wwise folder doesn't work for me - I sitll need to delete the ushaderprecache files, but as we know this didn't solve it for others. - 2 months ago
I bought the game a few days ago and after the EA Game introvideo an warningtext it crashed all the time no matter what I tried. EA Support was useless.
But now i found a solutiuon to get it running at least.
I have the EA app, select WRC 24 -> mange -> View properties -> in advanced launch options type -dx11 and the save. Forcing it to DirectX 11 works for me. I don't know the differens in the graphics between dx11 an dx12 since it doesen't work with dx12 for me.

Unfortunately I still experience the issue where it just closes after the initial ea window with the loading bar. I have tried all the fixes from this thread and nothing helped me. The only think i haven't done yet is a complete windows reinstall which is just not possible at this stage.. I talked with 2 support people and 1 directed me to the steam support for help LMAO foreal.
