I get "Squadron Data File Error EOR Check=Record Number 1". I've also had "Aircraft File Error Record Number 0".

I've probably messed up the install somehow. I installed DX9 from the toolbox. I set the WIN10 language to English US.

The only thing that came to mind is the install never asked for CFS3. I never installed it or put it into the drive. Would this cause the error? If so, can I install now and fix the problem or do I need to wipe everything and start over? I've installed OFF/WOFF on two other computers without this problem.

Thank You

To help we'd need more detail. But random errors is not good if you have mods (or have had mods) installed, then you may need to clean uninstall and reinstall (see section 17 of the WOFF BH&H II FAQ). When you get the error take a screenshot of it first (if you don't know how use printscreen key and paste into mspaint as a new image and save as a .jpg).

Then exit WOFF and gather all the logs and files as requested in the last 2 pages of the FAQ and send to support email. Do NOT post logs here please.

..and no it's nothing to do with CFS3 you do not need the disk or an installation of CFS3 (better if you do not have one actually).

Thank You Pol.

I found the problem.

In Change System Locale there was a checked box. It was "Beta: Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support". Unchecked it and problem solved. Windows 10. There has to be others out there with this. I'm not that unique.

Ran three minutes of beautiful 4k free flight, so it looks like the problem is over.

Thank You

Ah weird I think that's a relatively new Windows 10 option. Seems that's broken too. Thanks for reporting it anyway - yeah, best avoid anything that has alpha or beta on it if you can help it.
