Hi all:
Other squad comrade and me who using flat screen instead of VR headset suffered a random problem a few days after the patch  update ver. 6.107 (25-11-20)
the game stop working and does not start anymore. Launcher start normally, did the version check, and show the button "Play" .
But when you click in play button, game did not come-on normally, only a black screen appear or game goes to taskbar minimized.
If you open to task manager the program " il-2.exe" appear with the sing "not responding" and we was forced to kill the process. The problem occurring again and again.
My other comrade using flat screen and me, finally will be forced to download and re-install completely the game a total of 141 GB !!  ..fortunately this fix the problem.
I have using the same game, with patches again and again, without re-installing from 10 years ago. This was my first re-installation. 

By the way, the problem did not affected to most of other squad comrades using VR headset ... at the moment .

I have write this post for reporting the bug to rest of users.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

I have a similar issue, since the last update or so, when i play it for the first time of the day, it works, when i quit the game and want to play, for Example one hour later, it stops/crashes on a black screen, before the il-2 Load screen comes and the task isn´t responding anymore also my mouse is gone til i stop the process in the Task Manager, after i start my pc new its working again, so it works only once per session on the pc. Please Help.
