  • Verify the integrity of game files.

If players see Sons of the Forest crashes often, they should first and foremost verify the integrity of the game files on Steam. Such a procedure can restore any missing or corrupted files, which could prevent the system from crashing so frequently.

To verify the integrity of the game files, players should follow these steps:

  • Launch Steam and make your way to your library
  • Right-click on Sons of the Forest and choose the Properties option, which will open a new window
  • Choose the Local Files option on the left-hand side of the newly opened window
  • Finally, choose the Verify integrity of game files option to start the process

Steam will then check to see if any of the game’s files are missing or damaged and repair them if necessary.

  • Update your GPU driver

Occasionally, you can avoid game crashes if you have the newest driver patch for your GPU. This can be done by downloading and running the appropriate desktop application for your graphics card manufacturer, such as AMD, NVIDIA, or Intel. Players should only need to install it, as the process should be automatic if their system is connected to the internet.

The latest DirectX and Visual C++ Redistributables versions should also be installed on the player’s machine. Also, if a player is concerned about their PC’s anti-virus software interfering with the game, they may add an exclusion for the match to the program.

  • Reinstall the game

While it may sound extreme, reinstalling a game will often fix the crashing problem. Players can try reinstalling the game from Steam because there is currently no permanent fix for these issues.
