Hi @CedricLenners,
starting the game causes the graphics adapter or its driver to crash and reset. That reset then causes PowerToys Run to crash, which is why you see the message. While we can’t help with the root cause, the latest versions of PowerToys are more resilient to this kind of issue and should no longer crash.
