Same issue as other people have been having: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f26-pr ... error.html

That seems to be the only way to fix it for now.

Try setting permissions so everyone has all permissions on that profile folder/file.

I found that win7 error report was causing this crash by forcing program to min/max over and over. Disabled error report; Control Panel>System and Security>Action Center>Problem Reporting Settings, 7 hours of gameplay without Video.con crash.

Can you give me a bit more info on this.

Event Viewer logs and reports would be amazing right now so i can find the root cause of this.

The thing what fixed it for me was to deselect the ''read only'' box if you go to ''properties'' of the ''Profile'' folder.

Try extracting these files in Project Reality\mods\pr\settings.
Don't know if it'll fix it: settings vBF2

I did that but am still getting the error. Its a 1.3 error, never saw it previously. Running XP...

I've added Arabs files and will report back.

He means to to this:
Control Panel > System > Action Center > Change Action Center Settings > Problem Reporting Settings.
Select "Never Check for Solutions".

I'll report back about if it works.
