Overwatch Crashing

Every time I launch the game, it starts with a black screen and then it instantly crashes to desktop and the Blizzard Error window pops up saying “The application encountered an unexpected error”.

Latest report ID: 67715FBF-F13E-4E8A-BCFB-489762D04CB6

I’ve tried the majority of the troubleshooting steps.

Computer is fairly new (Dec 2020) and only started experiencing this problem today.

I have updated to the latest video drivers.

I re-downloaded the game and did a fresh install - didn’t help.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Been having the same issue, started today. I believe it was a windows update that caused the issue, though i am not certain which one. I did a system restore to 7/6/21 and it fixed the issue, won’t be updating windows for a little bit.

I was thinking myself that it was a possible Windows update issue. I checked out the Reliability Monitor in Windows 10 and I had 5 successful updates yesterday.

1 of which is: 9N42Q5XMCXMS-A-Volute.28054DF1F58B4

And also 9N81C41DQ5SJ-A-Volute.SonicStudio3

Did a quick Google search. It apparently runs multiple processes called “NahimicService”.

I stopped them all and the game runs perfectly fine now.

Ok now that i think about it i do recall my sonic studio updating, which i found odd, so this may only affect people with motherboards that have that.

Yeah, I’ve just gone and uninstalled Sonic Studio. I never use it anyway.
