2. Reinstall iRacing
This is an old yet efficient way to fix the game. Uninstall the game properly from your system. Make sure to use the conventional uninstall steps. Many players do not care about that and just delete the overall game directory. This will create a ton of problems as the system will identify this as a missing file.
Once you have removed the game properly, also take care of deleting all the log files. Now, reinstall the game.
3. Report to consumer service
Any game generates log files that contain the issues and reports related to the problems. Look for the log files of iRacing similar to ‘/documents/iRacing/iRacingSim64_20h55m38s.log’ in the installed game directory. Once you get hold of those, mail the log files to the iRacing support. They can help you to fix the issue that you are dealing with.
