# FiveM crashing? check if you are doing something wrong

## List of things that can make a difference and avoid crashes in FiveM:

**1** - Make sure you are running FiveM in Fullscreen mode.\
 \
**2** - Make sure your FiveM is in release mode, Eulen does not support beta/unstable mode.\ <img src="/files/upkAR0gUxcVZJqOaxwKD" alt="" data-size="original">\
\
**3** - Make sure you have windows defender in real time disabled. \
\
**4** - If you have any type of antivirus, disable it completely. \
\
**5** - Make sure everything is up to date, windows, drivers, video card. \
\
**6** - Try clearing your FiveM cache folder. (search on youtube *how to clean fivem cache*) \
\
**7** - Make sure you are injecting when you are on the FiveM menu (server list) \
\
**8** - Make sure your Steam Overlay is working on FiveM, eulen NEEDS steam overlay to works 100%. \
\
**9** - Apps running in the background can interfere with performance and cause crashes, so avoid using applications that the background is animated, close launchers such as origin, ubisoft, epic games, Riot Vanguard, Faceit anti cheat, terminate unnecessary applications, do not let anything hinder the performance of FiveM.\
\
**10** - Graphic mods, unfortunately any kind of graphic mod in FiveM can cause usage conflicts with Eulen, like reshade.
