The game often freezes for unknown reasons, always under different circumstances.

This problem has been present for a long time, but it does not happen all the time. Sometimes it freezes every 10 minutes. Sometimes the whole day is fine.
The game freezes, the screen turns black, the game goes into windowed mode, the task manager writes: β€œthe division is not responding.”
This happens only with this game. PTS also has this problem.
I tried everything: I closed all third-party programs, updated all drivers, lowered graphics settings, switched directx 11 and directx 12, but still sometimes freezes and sometimes everything works well.
I tried to run it on another computer, but everything repeats.

System :
Windows 10
Intel Core i9 8950HK.
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 8GB.
SSD 512 GB.
DDR4 RAM 2666 MHz 32 GB.

Hey there everyone, thank you for the further discussions here. If you haven't already, I would recommend that you take the time to go through the troubleshooting article previously shared, as the steps included can help reduce the frequency of crashes and freezing.

Our teams are still investigating these persistent issues and I'm afraid we do not have any updates to provide.

Some users have mentioned that they have been able to reduce the issues by deleting the "The Division 2" folder in the "Documents\My Games" section. It is important to note that doing this will remove any settings which you have adjusted, and you will need to change them again.

If anyone has any further questions please let me know and I will do my best to respond to them.
