DCS stops responding/crashes when joining MP game after Windows update

[Kang]

I received an update to Windows 10 last night and while I managed to use DCS quite normally yesterday, today the luck has apparently run out.

Single Player missions load alright-ish (one crashed earlier, but that might be unrelated), but the attempt of joining any multiplayer server always ends at the end of the loading screen, status saying 'Mission Load Done'. I've tried with several different servers in order to rule out mission-related issues, always the same result.

Anybody else having a similar issue? Or better yet, a solution?

Hi

have you tried a slow repair yet? 

[Kang]

I tried that and it sadly has not produced any change.

Make sure that your Graphics Drivers and Programs are still correct versions mine did similar thing the update had something to do with a Driver that deals with visuals on multiple screens after update the App used to control my graphic settings which is Amd Radeon software had changed versions never got notification that a this change took place which when I tried to play a game, the game would start and then crash I just did a reinstall of Graphics card drivers and fixed my issue not sure if this is the same case for you but something to check.

Thank you for the reminder, Gumbie. It's still far from working okay, or as it was, but updated sound and video drivers at least let me enter a game again; just a lot of unexpected waiting involved.
