@BoilingOil To be honest, it's a sometimes thing. Sometimes it matters and sometimes it doesn't. I'm not yet clear on why there is a difference.

UC updated has caused a problem for some machines.
NVidia itself in combination with Windows 10 has problems sometimes.

The way I look at it is if we get rid of all the sometimes problems we either resolve it, or we find a new problem. So its worth changing it for the just in case sometimes.

Hey @celebkiriedhel

I will add my updated graphics card. I can play the game for like maybe a half hour or hour tops then it either just closes to the desktop or I get the pop up that says it crashed. Yes i am running under admin at least it should be lol

and to be honest im not sure if im using the NVidia Graphic Rules card, i think so but how can i check? I tried to fix it on my own but had no idea what i was doing so i could have messed something up. i saw in a post to try and remove all the old graphics update and then install a new graphics update so i have no idea if that did anything.

thanks for all your help.

You can check that in the file that you just attached; the -config-log.txt file is readable, and it shows that the GeForce GTX 1070 is used for the game. That means, the game sees and uses the NVidia Graphics card.

No, files in the 'logs' folder do not control the program or cause problems. They only REPORT problems, when problems exist.

I'm sorry to hear that. It seems that our resident problem solver (Kiri) is currently unavailable. If she returns, I'm sure she'll do her darnedest to help you fix it.
