Just in case you didn't know why you were having problems with your install.

The latest steam update has caused Blitz not to run on Windows 7,8, and 10. Our coders are looking into a fix. If you have not updated steam, then you should be fine.

Sorry for the inconvenience. We are burning the candle at both ends looking for a fix.

Imo it would help them generate sales of the title. I know several people who refuse to buy it on those grounds alone.

If you haven't updated Steam, you'll be fine? But when you start the game, it automatically updates Steam, doesn't it?

I believe it is the default option when you start steam.

While I know one can opt out of updating the titles I was not aware one can block steam updates?
Where do I find this setting?

Actually, you didn't have to do that. I simply waited and then went back and tried it. Running fine, again. Did a few Beaufighter missions. I'm glad, 'cause it happens to be my favorite. The BOX series is okay, but for me, CLOD is the better sim.

See everyone found out on their own that Blitz is working again. Here is their Facebook announcement anyway.
