Since updating my Dell PC with Windows 11, screen will freeze and Zwift crashes. The file becomes damaged and won’t upload to Strave. But the ride does appear in Activities…up until crashing of course. Every time it’s happened, I have been in a group ride, may just be coincidence.

Is it crashing on particular worlds (e.g. Makuri) or all worlds? What are the specs of your PC?

Try re-installing the game. I’ve had similar experiences since most recent game updates on Win 11.
