Farming Simulator 25 Crash on Launch with Not Allowed to Install Error
Many fans are reporting various crashes at launch in Farming Simulator 25 (FS25), with some errors preventing them from starting the game at all.
Winter's chill may be approaching, but the fields of Farming Simulator 25 are fresh and ready to be tilled, inviting players to dive into the virtual harvest season. However, as our colleague noted in their review, the game faces some technical problems. People have reported performance issues, stuttering, and difficulties with language settings; some are even struggling to launch the game altogether.
Crash on Launch in Farming Simulator 25
Rather than green scenery and tranquil music, some Farming Simulator fans are met with frustration as they encounter crashes or error messages upon launch, including the dreaded ‘Not allowed to install game’ error. Despite having PCs that meet, or even exceed, the minimum and recommended system requirements, these players are still unable to start the game. This issue has been reported across various platforms, including Steam, Epic Games, and GIANTS Software.
Technical hiccups like these can be tricky to troubleshoot, given the countless variations in hardware and software setups. If your game crashes soon after launch or certain graphics don’t display correctly, shader problems could be the culprit. For now, if you’ve already tried common fixes like verifying game files and updating graphics drivers, there may be little else to do.
Your best bet is to reach out to the support team, which can gather the necessary data about your system and specific issues and work on resolving this. Just a few hours ago, the developers posted on X that they're already working on resolving the complication with the game on Epic Games.
