2.9.1 / foc not starting [SOLVED]
Played 2.9.1 yesterday without issues. Suddenly today the mod itself refuses to start. Tried reinstalling everything but did not solve the issue. Anyone has any suggestions ? Thanks in advance!! Playing on Win10.

* EaW starts fine from Steam
*Subscribing to AOTR 2.9.1 in steam workshop
* Have Launch option set to STEAMMOD=1397421866
* After selecting PLAY from steam and selecting to start FoC, **nothing happens and the steam button reverts back to PLAY after a few seconds. No error shown.**
*Can start FoC by clicking StarwarsG.exe but when selecting Options/Mods/AOTR 2.91. FoC just exits and AOTR start screen is never displayed
*No other mods or disc version of EaW installed (this is a brand new PC)

- Have tried setting HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Petroglyph\StarWars FOC\Profiles\Profile0\Player\ScreenRefresh to 59, did not help
- Have tried setting "Run as admin" and "Win7 comp. mode" on StarwarsG.exe but did no help
- Validated game files on steam but did not help
- Disabling Launch options (empty setting) does not start FoC when I select it in the steam popup

PGCrashcollector spits out the following if that can be of any help pinpointing the issue ? :

This helped, except that my save games now for some reason are stored in AppData\Roaming\Petroglyph\Empire At War - Forces of Corruption\Save :

1. Changed the Properties of "StarwarsG" and "swfoc" exe files to have "Win XP SP 2" comptibility mode set and also set to "Run as admin"
2. Disabled the "Steam overlay" option (Rightclick game in steam, select properties)

Let me just add that after setting "Win XP SP 2" comptibility mode for the exe files I have had ZERO crashes during the last 20 or so hours of gameplay. Prior to that I had crashes all the time!
