Kill Resource-Hogging Applications

Chances are you have lots of applications installed on your PC. Some of these applications have been constantly using the resources that possibly trigger Dying Light 2 Stay Human crashing. We highly suggest closing the software that you are not using while playing Dying Light 2 Stay Human.

Some of the most popular software that eats lots of resources while in the background are Media Players, web browsers such as Firefox and Chrome,  and more. You can close these applications by closing them using the Task Manager.

Disable Antivirus

Another reason why Dying Light 2 Stay Human keeps on crashing on PC is your antivirus. Antivirus companies have been usually updating their software to enhance security.

If you download the Dying Light 2 Stay Human from the official store, we’re 100% sure that the game files are safe.
