Best Fix for Invalid Access to Memory Location

As mentioned above, the best and the most common fix for the error at hand is to close unwanted applications running in the background. The error usually arises when you run the game on the borderlines of minimum RAM requirements, i.e., 4GB. You can free up RAM space on your computer by closing unwanted applications you don't require while playing. Launch the game, and you should not face the error anymore.
