Rocket League crashes on startup after the logo, how do I fix it?

Question

Rocket League opens, shows the logo, then crashes before the main menu. It was working before. I did not install anything wild, but maybe an update broke it. I tried launching from Epic and from shortcut, same thing. No clear error. Is there a cache folder or settings file I can reset without losing everything?

Yep, Rocket League startup crashes are often config/cache related. Try this: 1. Close Rocket League and Epic/Steam fully. 2. Go to Documents/My Games/Rocket League. 3. Rename the TAGame folder to TAGamebackup. 4. Start Rocket League so it creates fresh config files. 5. If it works, copy only needed custom files back carefully. 6. Verify game files. 7. Disable overlays and capture tools while testing. Renaming is safer than deleting because you can restore it if needed.
