[2023] AchievementsDownload.cpp - Unknown file extension for achievement keeps crashing the game | Assassin's Creed: Valhalla Dev Tracker

Original Post — Direct link

Hello,
AC Valhalla keeps crashing randomly, and each and every time it crashes, I check the launcher_logs and find this same error: AchievementsDownload.cpp (237) Unknown file extension for achievement. I've tried reinstalling Ubisoft Connect as suggested in another thread and that didn't solve the problem.

Hey @sp744!

I'm sorry to hear about this crashing! And thank you for the launcher log information!

To start out I would advise the following steps! It would also be worth trying a clean boot of your system to see if you can play without crashing this way. If you're still running into issues, then let's make sure supporting software's are up to date.
