At the request of OBD support I created a new admin user profile on windows and installed the game anew there. I also uninstalled my antivirus and firewall. I then did the install process and the game seems to work with missions loading first time, all still with no AV or firewall installed.
I'll see how I get on with reinstalling antivirus and with running the game on my proper user profile.
Edit this was also without any TrackIR running, Mods, reshade etc. Just the basic game.

Yep, with anitivirus and firewall back the issue returns. Annnoying, but I'll make do as I'm not removing my antivirus and firewall for one game. No I'm not either pal,but it seems a possible antivirus/firewall issue? It's the only thing that updates regular on my PC..fwiw I've never had a issue with WOFF /WOTR with kaspersky. Edit ..sorry just realised IF it was antivirus/firewall why does it let us load the mission if we Alt Tab out of it after the 1st attempt?

Great at least there's a pointer ChiefWH. The fact it works without those proves one or them (or maybe in combo) is blocking access to cfs3.exe in someway. Maybe a new mode, or new virus definition but please Adger check your logs if you have different firewall or AV to ChiefWH. Maybe just try a new Admin user profile as I asked ChiefWH to do.
Will do Pol cheers.

...why does it let us load the mission if we Alt Tab out of it after the 1st attempt? I think it is because cfs3.exe and rundll32.exe both start when we try and start the mission, and it is the rundll32.exe that is being blocked. If you get the crash and as well as stopping cfs3.exe in task manager you find the rundll32.exe and end that, it will crash next time too, so you'd never get in. But if you don't close that, you will see it running, then when you start WoTR and a mission again I think the rundll32.exe is somehow in place now and the game works. Disclaimer - I don't really have a clue on this sort of thing.

Done exactly the same has Chief Pol..and i get exactly the same results. FWIW ive also set cfs3 and wotr.exe to exclusions again no joy. @Chief yep your right ive also tested the same thing regarding rundll32.exe (which points to my Windows\SysWOW64 folder) If you leave it running in task manager after the 1st "crash" then WOTR loads next time round. If you end it it gives you the same problem has loading WOTR 1st time??? Maybe somebody more technical minded than both myself and Chief can chime in with a answer to this possible problem?
