Hi there Cat . I am sorry to hear you are having crashing and performance issues in Rainbow Six Siege X, this certainly is not ideal. I have a few steps here that can hopefully help with this issue:

- Installing Rainbow Six Siege X on the same SSD as both Steam and Ubisoft Connect is the most optimised way [www.ubisoft.com] to run the game
- Clean boot [support.microsoft.com] will rule out any background processes that could be conflicting (Overwolf, Steel Series, Corsair, iCue3, Razer, Synapse, etc.)
- Unplug non-essential peripherals (steering wheels and pedals, streaming equipment, additional monitors, VR equipment, etc.)
- Clear the Steam cache and Ubisoft Connect cache [www.ubisoft.com]
- Complete all these steps in this FAQ [www.ubisoft.com] as these can cross off more common causes for crashing
- Reinstall the supporting software [www.ubisoft.com] for the game
- Perform a SFC Scan [support.microsoft.com] if errors are detected, repeat the scan until all results are clear)
- Clean reinstall the C++ supporting software [learn.microsoft.com]

If these steps don't resolve the crashing issues for you, please link your Discord and Ubisoft accounts [www.ubisoft.com] and join the Ubisoft Support Discord server [discord.com] so that we can take a deeper look."
