Hellonto everyone!

I've purchsed this lovely game via steam. I got some issues with checksum but afte a little digging i got the proper NSPY designation. Now i can get into the game and select a nation to play but shortly after the game starts it crshes with no message at all and with the game virtually open but minimized will the censor still has that glove icon. Any hep or advise to solve my issue will be much appreciated :)

I've gotten a lot of temporary shut-downs of the game myself lately, and I'm not sure if it's something that Windows 10 did which is causing a problem, or at least magnifying an existing one. Normally, after the better part of an hour of play, the game minimizes without warning, and then USUALLY reopens and continues after 2-10 seconds. On occasion, it won't reopen, no matter what I do, and I have to shut it down with Task Manager, then restart.

I know that if you have too many things running in the background, there's likely to be insufficient BASE memory to run the game (you can have 16Gb or more, but if the game can only use the bottom 2Gb, adding another 16Gb won't solve the problem). I'm not sure if V2 has that 2Gb memory limitation or not, but a lot of Paradox games have run into that issue. There's a utility for HOI3, to expand the game's use of memory, but I don't know if a similar utility exists for V2, or if the game already supports higher memory limits.
