This worked, Thanks!!

When I try to run .10, I get a startup error (error text posted at the bottom of message)

This always happens with .10

I've tried:

Download installer from the site, and install
Manually uninstall FAF, and run the installer downloaded from the site
Install 2022.8, and upgrade to 2022.10 from inside FAF

I always get the startup error when I try to launch 10

.9 worked fine, and I can run .8 just fine, too.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thanks-

@jip I know there are chat commands for this, but a rank total and quality number displayed for everyone in the lobby would be really helpful in settling discussions about balance.

Thanks!
