  1. FYI. In case your DCS is hanging because of a crash dump prompt (Windows Error Reporting), you can set the registry to avoid the pop-up window...….

     

    -------------------------------------

    To force Windows Error Reporting (WER) to take a crash dump and close the app, instead of prompting you to debug the program, you can set these registry entries:

     

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting]
    "ForceQueue"=dword:00000001
    
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\Consent]
    "DefaultConsent"=dword:00000001
    

    After this is set, when your apps crash, you should see *.hdmp and *.mdmp files in:

     

    %ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Microsoft\Windows\WER\
    

    -------------------------------------

  2. Hey Samoht, I realize the AO mission is pretty complex but after some updates to Beta you can get better performance from building out the mission from scratch. Sometimes new changes just don't work well with missions created on previous versions. We had to do this several times in the past back in the VA days. It was a lot of work but the mission would start running better when constructed on the newest version of DCS.

  3. Hey BigNewy, I did a test on behalf of this thread. I had not updated to Win 10 Spring Edition so I went into Windows updates and forced it to start.

     

    After the update was completely installed and I had been through all the required reboots, I launched open beta 2.5.1.

     

    First thing that popped up was the "Login Failed, Invalid Username/Password" dialog window. After I clicked that the username/password box came up and it was empty. So after the Windows update apparently your credentials get wiped clean.

     

    After I re-entered my login information, I was good. No additional issues.

     

    P.S. - I have not used Offline Mode at all to this point.
