forza Horizon 4 game completely frozen after completing the first cross country race

the game is stuck in the black screen with the loading circle at one dot and FPS stuck at 75 FPS and GPU usage stuck at 99%

I have tried restarting the game, rebooting my PC and reinstalling the game and it yelds the same result

Edit: Benchmark mode works but loading into the main game doesn’t

EDIT 2: THE GAME RUNS FINE AGAIN AFTER RUNNING BENCHMARK MODE ONCE

Edit 3: freeze again after running another race

I’m having the same issue except it happened when the game was trying to transition from winter to spring, I even ran benchmark mode and still nada. Screenshot looks the same as yours https://puu.sh/BCqkV.png

Edit: My issue seems to be fixed after running some steps here: https://support.forzamotorsport.net/hc/en-us/articles/360007593074-My-Game-is-Not-Launching-on-PC

I installed and ran the Netflix app and used the powershell to “disable development mode.”
