I've noticed lately that when I turn the game off to go back to desktop, I get a black screen and have to manually shut the PC down and restart it. Happens almost once a day. Even after only briefly playing. Has this happened with others or again, is it just me?
Thank you.

Re: O.o. B. crashes.
Something similiar happened to me when I started the site version (no problems with steam version). Try starting OoB as Admin!robertahyuk wrote: ↑Tue Oct 02, 2018 5:01 pm I've noticed lately that when I turn the game off to go back to desktop, I get a black screen and have to manually shut the PC down and restart it.

Thank you.
(PS: Alt-Tab didn't work, but I could use Alt-Ctrl-Del to access the task manager and close the OoB process manually)

Re: O.o. B. crashes.
The Task Manager wouldn't work either. The screen just went back to black. I have been the Admin for some time now. Odd, to say the least.GabeKnight wrote: ↑Tue Oct 02, 2018 6:41 pmSomething similiar happened to me when I started the site version (no problems with steam version).

You have to right-click, run as... (at least that's the way in Win7)

Open the game installation folder.
Locate and select a file named "autorun.exe".
Press the right mouse button and select "Properties".
Click on the "Compatibility" tab.
Tick the option "Run this program as an administrator".
Click on "Apply" and "Ok".

Re: O.o. B. crashes.
I have Windows 10, so it's a little different, Gabe. But thank you.
As far as this? I went all through the files and couldn't find any autorun.exe file. Not a big deal as it only occasionally crashes like that.

Thanks anyway. Maybe the next update will clear up any lingering problems.

Haven't you find any autorun file? It's in the game installation folder.
