The Problem: You are playing a game on your PlayStation 5, and it suddenly crashes to the dashboard with the code CE-108255-1.

The Short Answer: This is a generic application crash error. It usually means the game file is corrupt or there is a conflict with the HDCP settings.

This organizes your drive and fixes file issues without deleting your data.

1. Turn off your PS5 completely.
2. Hold the power button until you hear a second beep (about 7 seconds).
3. Connect your controller with a USB cable.
4. Select option 5: Clear Cache and Rebuild Database.
