[Dwizle81]

Every few days I have to delete my DCS folder in the Saved Games folder to get the game to load missions

Hi. From the look of it, DCS tried to load a Lua file and failed:

Try a DCS cleanup, then a DCS repair in "slow" mode.

And please ensure DCS.exe is not run as administrator.

Thank will try

Any idea what would cause that fault?

Not much. I'm thinking it may be caused by a file permission conflict of some sort.

If case it doesn't work, please open a support ticket. They are used to cases like yours. Log into DCS website, click "Support", then click "Create a new ticket".
