Last world update (Japan) causes constant CTD

SOH-CM-2023
I had this running beautifully until the last update. It started downloading and installing some update to the core game and crashed to desktop. Now, upon start up, I cannot any longer get to the pre-loading screen, just always CTD.

I did verify my Steam integrity, but still no longer able to log on.

Anyone else encounter this?

I am truly hoping this won't be a uninstall/reinstall. It took a few days of downloading.
 
Thank you Tiger1962 for the info. Unfortunately this didn't work for me.

Question to you or anyone, how painful is it to reinstall the base game? I installed 1.2TB of terrain, skins and aircraft and I really dread re-doing that aspect if I can avoid it.

I am running the steam version and have verified the integrity of my files but still cannot log in without an immediate dump to desktop. I suspect it's a corrupt file update. I have attached my Event Viewer file from my Asobo posting. I greatly appreciate any help with this, even if it means a complete re-install. Thanks for being far more of a helpful group than anyone at Asobo's development team.

Priller, unfortunately that didn't work either.

If I uninstall, does that remove all files too or just the base game? Dumb question, I realize, but I'm hoping to somehow reinstall just the base and then link the downloaded files after the base is running again.

You'll have to ask someone who actually runs the steam version of 2024. I'm the mod of this forum, but I don't have the sim installed.
