Il-2 sturmovik 1946 fails to launch windows 11 (again)
« on: April 16, 2025, 11:54:06 PM »

Hi, Something really incomprehensible happened, at least for me
I had problems launching the game at first until I applied the changes to the config.ini file
The game worked perfectly without any problems until today when it suddenly stopped working again
I tried all the possible actions (compatibility ,confing.ini and DEP) but without success
any ideas? It almost seems like the game is broken by default
I also had BAT installed on a copy of the game folder and it has the exact same problem

Is your device capable of Win11 ready or you have installed Win11 bypassing the TPM2.0 and 4GB RAM check? Anyways seems to me you run these two commands as admin one after the other
1) dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth
2) sfc /scannow

If these does not solve the issue then probably you have to reinstall BAT. If that too does not rectify the issue, you need to reset your Win11.

before reinstalling it would be worth having a look at the recent actions of your AV maybe adding IL-2 folder to the exclusions

A little more than "doesn't work" would surely help.
Did you try the "Startup Debugger"? https://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,16403.msg626272.html#msg626272
What's the result? Screenshot?
What doesn the Windows Event Log tell about your attempt to launch IL-2? I'm talking about the Event Log which ships with Windows, therein, the "application log" could yield some information after an unsuccessful app start.

does it work for the basic version of the game and BAT too?
The problem is basically that it doesn't start

Yes.

The problem is basically that it doesn't start
The problem is basically that this information is just enough to say "it's broken".
A more detailed analysis needs more detailed information.

I'm trying the recommended solution, but now the strange thing is that in the startuplog.txt file there is no explanation, there is no text, and so I can't understand why the game doesn't start
can it means something?

This is my situation
After starting the test there is no message or indication of what is happening or where the error is
