Last week, my PC got updated to Windows 10 May Update build 1903. Now after initial Turn10 Studios and Microsoft Game Studios splash videos, where the game asks to Press Enter, it takes 4-5 minutes for Continue button to show up while camera endlessly pans around the Mclaren Senna.
If I disable my Ethernet adapter, it loads instantly. But throws up Xbox Parental Control error if I re-connect my ethernet and try to connect to Horizon life.

I have replicated this problem on all the 3 PCs which I know have Windows build 1903 installed. Loading is instant on previous build 1809.

Anyone convey this problem to the devs?

It takes much more time for the game to load the XBOX profile in Windows 10 version.

Here it takes less than 1 minute, but even so, it's a long delay if comparated to Windows 10 version 1809.

I have the exact same issue. I tried to report it by submitting a ticket, but the response I got was unrelated to the issue.

Here's a video of the load time. https://youtu.be/TWgamIciB0E

ME TOO
LOADING IS TOO LONG FOR ME!!!!

same

Not only a long load time but Horizon Life keeps disconnecting with build 1903, especially when doing the Forzathon/group activities. I have a 50/50 chance of completing the hourly Forzathon due to the constant disconnects.

I'm having EXACTLY the same problem since updating Windows. Will this ever get fixed? Game is on a SSD, so storage speed isn't the problem. I play on ultra settings.

PC Specs:
Ryzen 5 1600
RX 570 8GB 1400MHz
16GB RAM 2933MHz

not the only one's.

+1, on 1809 loaded fast

+1

Same here. thought it was the manual installation of the car pack but update 1903 was just before i had this issue the 1st time.
loading takes forever now.

Same here, loading times is like 5 times longer since 1903.

Same issue here.

i7-6700k
16GB DDR4 Ram
Nvidia 1060 6GB

Installed on an SSD. Loaded quick before, takes ages now that I've updated to 1903.

Someone on Reddit was saying this was fixed with the LEGO update...is that not the case? I don't want to upgrade to 1903 if it's still broken.

Hasn't been fixed for me. A friend on an Alienware laptop doesn't have this issue. (He's on 1903)

no still the same after lego expansion.

Not in my case.

Same issue. Fast on 1809, very slow on 1903. Ryzen 1600, 16GB, RX580 8GB, 512GB NVMe x4 SSD.

Also, now crashing when loading after pressing the Continue button, which is something another thread has been posted about.

samers boys...

This is not fixed with Lego update. Come on devs. Can't you see the increased load times?

Same problem. Only in Forza Horizon and only after I updated to Windows 10 1903. Using a i7-8700k with an fast M.2 SSD so there is definitely something wrong with the game or UWP games in general.

Also the installing and update experience of Windows Store games is awful. If you own the Ultimate Edition you have to manually search for the included items ans expansion and install them separately.

And also the game just created a second folder which means it utilizes two identical folders under c:/programs/windowsapps with 70GB each...please fix or move the game over to Steam lol.

me too, there's nothing I can do to start the game

Update 2:
I can finally play again but the loading times are still 3-6x longer than before the lego dlc release week.
I am now on 1809 again and the loading times are definitely not because of 1903 but more likely an issue with the new game version in general since the lego dlc release week. Even without dlc the game starts very slowly.

Also I had a strange bug when I quit the game after playing the lego dlc until to the point where I got enough points to upgrade the lego house for the first time. This resulted probably in my game crashing everytime it would have tried to spawn in that bugged house. Setting a house on the mainland as home and upgrade the lego dlc house first before trying to spawn in there fixxed the crashes for me.

Update:

I just went back to 1809 and it seems that the crashes still appear after the second time launching the game. I read on the forums here that it might be an issue with redownloading the game while you already played the lego expansion to the point where it sets it as the new home. I am now redownloading (because after uninstalling the lego expansion it just started redownloading the whole 72GB, why not its the usual UWP/Microsoft Store experience) and trying to download everything but the two expansions and set a new home in the mainland. I will let you know if it works whenever this stupid download finishes for the 5th time this weekend.

I am on 1809 and it is the same problems. I just posted on the thread "FH4 not launching" what I did to try to get it to work. I think it has to do with internet connecting through the teredo adapter. I did some research and I can get it to run, but most of the time it takes a couple tries. Go into your xbox networking page on the xbox app or through settings\gaming page on windows and see if it is running ok. I was getting "does not qualify" on NAT type and i think this may be part of the problem. Read my post in the other thread.
