solved Latest Open beta unable to run game

[Shibbyland]

Game crashes on launch. Sometimes crashes my PC and I have to do a hard restart, sometimes it says DCS is not responding and closes.

Was working fine prior to open beta update. I'm not running any mods and I have already tried a repair.

Hi 

check your antivirus is not blocking DCS 

it looks like it is unable to get a connection for login. 

also please run a repair 

if you still have problems rename your dcs folder here C:/Users/Sam/Saved Games/DCS/

to C:/Users/Sam/Saved Games/DCSbackup

then restart DCS and try to login

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. DCS is excluded from my AV and I tried a repair.

Looks like it was some kind of config issue in the end. Renamed the user folder, restarted then replaced the original configs with the new one and back to normal albeit with a long initial startup.

Hello, 

Same problem here - unable to run game:

- after updating to Open Beta 2.7.17.29493

- it gets stuck at initial DCS screen after login;

- the small blue circle (with mouse cursor) keeps spining forever.

 

Did a repair already but no success.

Would appreciate help.

 

Thank you.
