Recursive-recursive error: UCRT terminate() called

What is the issue you’re having?

When I am trying to start RedM there are always 2 different crashes.

  1. the recursive-recursive one
  2. only the UCRT one.
    Sometimes the Launcher starts at the second try, sometimes it wont start for an hour straight. No visible or predictable pattern. RedM starts normally, if I reinstall the Launcher
    or if I need to connect the launcher to the relocated basegame (switched from d to c and back f.e.)
    I never had this problem with my older laptop, this one here is new since a few months now.

What have you tried already to fix the issue?

I have tried to reinstall the game, reinstall RedM, checked all windows system files per scannow and nothing changes. I checked all my drivers and updates. Disabled the antivirus.

What server did you get this issue on?

no server, it’s the launcher.
