Hi, after having upgraded to Woff PE, and after one successful first launch , I cannot fire WOFF anymore , i get a systematic return to desktop after 5 seconds of the inital black screen with the little "road sign"...I did the coma/dot trick, disabled Window defender and Avast, reinstalled PE but no joy...any hint , please ?

Kaa make sure you have no mods running.
If in doubt do a clean reinstall of WOFFUE and then PE.

If the problem persists kindly contact us on support and send in all the logs, sample mission and a picture of said road sign?

We'll need more details as WM says as there's not enough info. Does WOFF manager quit or is when you fly?
What system?

If this is WOFF launch and it quits maybe it has problems playing the opening splash (some laptops do).
Try renaming the OBDSplash.wmv as described in thee FAQ - Laptop section near the end.

Could be something else has changed on the system given it ran once then now doesn't?

Thank you for having taken interest for my request : I've found out why it did not launch thanks to your last question that remembered me ...I had the same problem when I installed WOFF on my new laptop : WOFF (but not WOTR) doesn't launch if i have other settings than "integrated graphics" on the global parameters of the Nvidia panel Things are sorted out now . Thank you again.

In fact, WOFF could only run on integrated graphics with mediocre FPS ...but the infamous OBDsplash trick did the thing and I can run it on Nvidia GTX 1060 GC now ...so the solution was already on the FAQ that we all should carefully read first !!
