I installed Windows 11 yesterday morning and it went without a hitch, between downloading, checking files and installation (& computer restart) it took less than and hour.
I looked it over checked this and that and the other thing and figured I could get used to it. I even ran BHAH II without a hitch with no real loss of speed in the quick combat mission I ran. That was the last time it worked, I have uninstalled, re-installed, cleared cashes and even went as far as to delete any file on the C drive that was related to WOFF, to include the stuff in the Users folder.
When preparing a packet for OBD boys, I noticed an oddity, there is no longer and outcomes.xml file in the AppData/roaming folder. It did say that was not found in the dialog box that came up after the mission failed to load. So I took one of the xml files in that folder, copied it and renamed outcomes.xml (I figured if it didn't work I could do another re-install). Guess what? It of course didn't work, got the same dialog box saying it was missing. So I went back to check and the folder I made was gone.
I think Windows 11 is erasing the outcomes.xml for some reason and that causes the mission to not load.

OK, I did the above, still no go, no Outcomes.xml. When I hit the CFS3.exe (run as administrator) it said it is unable to load EULA.

Just for General information, since I know everyone has been waiting with baited breath: Fresh install from my backup worked just fine with Windows 11, actually the best , most problem free install I've had. No hitches at all. Another piece of unasked for info: I stored the zip download from back in June 21 in my Dropbox account. Wasn't sure if that would affect it, apparently not. Happy flying Jerbear :

I appreciate you sharing your experience with Windows 11 from a couple of years back. It's always insightful to hear about users' encounters with different operating systems. It's unfortunate to hear about the issue you faced with WOFF and the missing outcomes.xml file. It does seem like a unique challenge. Given that it's been a while since your post, I'm curious if you managed to find a solution or if you've since moved on to a different setup. By the way, if you ever find yourself in need of a windows 10 pro key, there's a discussion on Reddit that provides insights on where to find reliable sources. Having a legitimate key is essential for smooth and secure operations.
