DCS crashed on launch

[KillerDog]

I have removed all the mods, i was working on a mission, today when I try running dcs again it keep crashing on the start.

 

Thank youdxdiag.txtdcs.20220310-034357.log

Looking at your DXdiag.txt:

1. Video card drivers for the Nvidia GTX-1050 and Intel HD GPU's don't have any details about the graphics cards (Amount of Ram, driver capabilities), So me personally would look at doing a fresh install of latest drivers for them as this is not normal.

The DCS.log file:

1. Some references to missing Lua files, that seem to be related to Lua5.1 programming language, not sure about what problems these may or may not create.

Regards, Ian.

@KillerDog

Had a second look at the dxdiag.txt you sent and that has a section at the top that said it failed several stages of the diagnostics, didn't notice that before, would explain why details weren't right about graphics cards.

Try re-running DXdiag and see if it can complete correctly and upload if you want, read the spoiler for details.

Re-running DxDiag with "dontskip" command line parameter or choosing not to bypass information gathering when prompted might result in DxDiag successfully obtaining this information

Follow with a DCS repair and clean also if dxdiag looks ok.

I did a full and slow repair no fix yet

Seems more system wide issues, dxdiag isn't working correctly, and obviously DCS, other error reports on "Edge browser" updates failing, Edge Browser crashing.

You haven't run out of ram or HDD space have you, can't diagnose with non functioning DXDIAG still.

Have you tried running: DxDiag /dontskip /t c:\dxdiag.txt from command line.

 

Have a look at my previous message with the second spoiler about the LUA errors, would try to fix those, they are trying to run some sort of code to do with MOD you removed I am guessing, maybe an export files or something.

I have enough space and ram i guess issue with lua, im gonna reset windows and see,

thanks for the help

NP, have to go to bed soon.

Good luck with it.

Could try, but I can't recommend it personally.

5. How to use sfc /scannow - it will inspect and repair all of the important Windows files on your computer, including Windows DLL files.
a) open Command Prompt as an administrator
b) type the following command: sfc /scannow   and then press Enter
c) system File Checker will now verify the integrity of every protected operating system file on your computer
