Did the October 10th update go out to everyone? I’m still on 1.107.1807.2, I believe the update changed the version to 1.107.5368.2. The store app doesn’t find any updates for Forza 7.
My game is unplayable. It consistently crashes when trying to start any race. This started after the first update dropped, and I was waiting for the next update to arrive to see if the issue is resolved. I plan on starting a separate topic for the crashes i’m seeing when I get home from work tonight (so I have access to crash information).
Method : Turning Firewall on for all Profiles through Command Prompt (Admin)
Right click Start - Command Prompt (Admin)
and type “netsh advfirewall set allprofiles state on”

This will open a blue menu with Options
Startup Settings - 6) Enable Safe Mode with Command Prompt

Reboot your PC back into normal Windows 10 mode
Additional Notes : Make sure that the “AppReadiness” and “AUInstallAgent” folders exists in “C:\Windows” , if they are not there, create them.
Method : Windows 10 Corruption Scanning
Right click Start - Command Prompt (Admin)
Method : Create a new Windows Account
Start button, Settings - Accounts - Family & other people - Add someone else to this PC.
Enter a user name, password, password hint, and then select Next.
Thanks for all of the suggestions, unfortunately none of them worked.
I did resolve the issue, however. I uninstalled the game and reinstalled it. That wasn’t easy as the install was clearly corrupt - the store and control panel wouldn’t let me uninstall the game. I had to resort to manually removing registry keys, taking ownership of folders/files and deleting them, and removing entries from the state repository on the machine.
I now have the latest version installed, but I still get the same consistent crash so I’ll be starting another thread for that issue.
