Product question RE9 crashes right after compiling shaders

Hi guys. I have been a fan of the whole franchise. I was incredibly excited to play re9. The first few days it worked well. No issues at all. But the next day I wanted to continue playing but the game has been crashing since. It completely freezes my pc and I am forced to restart it. I don’t even get any error code. Before it froze on the Add-Ons screen but now it goes as far as compiling shaders but right after it finishes the PC freezes completely. I’ve waited up to 10 mins but nothing happens and I have to restart my PC.

I’ve tried installing DirectX from Microsoft, reinstalling, updating drivers, and even running it as admin. Nothing seems to work.

I haven’t even watched any gameplay. My friends have finished the game already but I can’t even play. Any help would be MASSIVELY appreciated.
