I exported Bloodborne from my ps4 to try it on ShadPS4 and when I go to install pkg from the file menu the application just crashes. I checked event viewer in windows and it tells me the following:

Faulting application name: shadPS4.exe, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x67361fee
Faulting module name: VCRUNTIME140.dll, version: 14.42.34433.0, time stamp: 0x98c03cc5
Exception code: 0xc0000005

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling VC redistributable, but that did nothing. I have also seen other issues where people were using older cpus but I have a 13th gen i7 that supports avx2 instructions so I do not think that is the issue for me.

I was using the retail pkg file from my ps4. After converting it to a fake pkg it extracted like it should and installed to the emulator
