Here’s an easy guide to troubleshoot and potentially fix the PS5 error code CE-108255-1, which shows up as "An error occurred in the application." This error can crash games or apps, but these steps might help:
1. Restart Your PS5
Hold the power button on your console for a few seconds until it shuts down completely.
Wait a minute, then turn it back on. Check if the error persists when you launch the app or game.
2. Update Everything
Go to Settings from the home screen, then System, and select System Software Update to ensure your PS5 is on the latest version.
For the game or app, go to its icon on the home screen, press the Options button on your controller, and select Check for Update. Install any available patches.
3. Reinstall the Game or App
From the home screen, go to Settings, then Storage, and select Games and Apps.
Find the game or app causing the error, highlight it, press Options, and choose Delete.
Head to the Game Library or PlayStation Store, redownload it, and install it fresh.
4. Rebuild Database in Safe Mode
Turn off your PS5 completely.
Hold the power button until you hear two beeps (about 7 seconds apart), then connect your controller via USB and press the PS button.
In Safe Mode, select option 5, Rebuild Database. This scans and reorganizes your drive without deleting data, though it might take a while.
5. Check the Disc (If Applicable)
If the error happens with a physical game, eject the disc and inspect it for scratches or dirt. Wipe it gently with a soft cloth from the center outward if needed.
Reinsert and try again.
6. Factory Reset (Last Resort)
Back up your data first: Go to Settings, System, Back Up and Restore, and save to a USB drive or the cloud if you have PS Plus.
In Safe Mode (same steps as above), choose option 6, Reset PS5. This wipes everything, so reinstall your system software and games afterward.
7. Hardware Check
If none of these work, it might be a hardware issue, like a failing SSD or graphics chip. PS5 games often crash with this error while PS4 games might not, hinting at hardware strain. Contact Sony Support for a repair if it’s consistent across multiple titles.
