Anyone else having disconnects with Canyon Network? I've re-re-run the repair tool but it still seems to happen. Fresh install about 3 months ago.

Well whatever it is -- going to windowed mode instead of full window seems to be working atm. I'm assuming this is a Windows Update problem (again) until someone proves it otherwise.

That's the universal fix to nearly all MWO crashing/DC problems.

That is a sad fact.

Alternatively don't tab in and out while matches are loading. Patience is a virtue.

Wasn't, it was full window (not full screen) and had focus at the time it just died. Changing it from full window to windowed seemed to help and i could even go back to full window again later without issue. Seems to be just another case of turn it off and on again.

Disable Game Bar and also actual Game Mode in Windows 10. And a majority of users Windows 10 update have not disabled driver updates. And for the few who have that disabled, occasionally a Windows update will reset items back to default.. what a pita.

Good suggestion! I've run into that before with Windows 10 (randomly resetting items back to default) and I wouldn't be surprised to run into it again. 10 has been more pain than it's worth especially with all the bad updates forced down our throats by M$ lately.
