I got the last update and it fixed the long loading problem.  I used DCS for a few hours that day.  But today, I loaded DCS up and it would not load correctly.  There was no DCS Splashscreen, and no game on the monitor.  After an hour of research, I narrowed it down to the ..Saved Games\Config\appSettings.lua file.   The first 4 lines get changed when the game first starts.  

windowPlacement = {
    ["y"] = -32000,
    ["x"] = -32000,
    ["w"] = 5120,
    ["h"] = 1440,

I ran the Repair and ran the long one, and also removed any 'extra files'...  I also renamed my ..Saved Games\DCS.openbeta folder to create a new fresh folder.  None of this helped.

When I have the appSettings.lua file open in Notepad++, I can actually see the ["x"] and ["y"] change from 0s to -32000 about 3 seconds after I launch the game!!  Attached are the game longs.  

Please Help..

Thanks Flappie!  

I was able to get it fixed by starting from a clean stock config folder, and adding my inputs and views folders into that.  and some other files.  Not sure what was causing it still..
