    The crashing issue with Dying Light 2, as indicated by the Event Viewer logs, points to a problem with the application itself, specifically the faulting application DyingLightGame_x64_rwdi.exe and the faulting module combase.dll. The exception code 0xc0000602 suggests a potential issue related to the application's interaction with system components.

    Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and possibly resolve the crashing issue:

    1. Update the Game: Ensure that Dying Light 2 is updated to the latest version, as patches often resolve stability issues.
    2. Verify Game Files: If you're using Steam, you can verify the integrity of the game files. This process will check for any corrupted or missing files and replace them.
    3. Update Windows: Make sure your Windows operating system is up to date, as updates can include important fixes for system files like combase.dll.
    4. Check for Driver Updates: Update your graphics card drivers and any other relevant hardware drivers to ensure compatibility with the game.
    5. Run as Administrator: Try running the game as an administrator to see if it resolves any permission-related issues.
    6. Reinstall the Game: If the problem persists, consider uninstalling and then reinstalling Dying Light 2 to ensure a clean installation.
    7. Check for Conflicting Software: Sometimes, background applications can interfere with games. Try closing unnecessary applications before launching the game.
    8. Consult Support Forums: Look for similar issues on gaming forums or the official Dying Light support page for additional solutions specific to this game.

    If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may want to contact the game's support team for further assistance.

    That error trace from the game that you have provided does not indicate any problem with the Windows instalaltion, it just indicates corruption in the game installation, try to repair the game instalaltion, if you are a Steam gamer, that is done from inside the Steam app.
