  1. Yes, I had the same problem and for the past several days I have been working through it and here is what I have found. When I allowed Windows 10 to manage my Virtual Memory: Paging File - inevitably DU would crash either while loading or immediately thereafter. So, I went into Settings => System => About (it's at the bottom of the list on the left column) => Advanced System Settings. In Advanced System Settings click on Performance Settings and then the Advanced tab. Under Virtual Memory if it is not set to 16384 (16 gig) then click on change. Uncheck the box that says Automatically manage paging file size for all drives and then click the radio button that says Custom Size. Set initial size to 16384 and Maximum size to 16384 now click Set then the OK button and Windows will now tell you a reboot is necessary. Click out of that and click apply then restart. My finding is that at least for my system if I allowed Windows to manage it, it would set it higher OR lower than 16gig and DU would crash every single time. At 16gig it works wonderfully and I no longer get any crashes. Of course it is entirely possible this may not work for you and that this issue is wholly related to my system alone; however, no other programs crash and Win 10 64bit works beautifully with whatever settings I throw at it. DU is the only program I had an issue with until I changed that setting. I truly hope this helps you in some way. Please, let me know if it works for you! Good Luck! MySystemSpecs.docx

Please, let me know if it works for you! **** Please, forgive my being distracted as I forgot to mention an important thing concerning the Down-loader / Installation process. If you have any system scan, security scan, antiviral software, or, anti-malware programs running while you are doing this you should at least temporarily disable them. I have read a number of posts stating that both DU, the Down-loader, and Installer (including the anti-cheat portion of it EQU8) do not play nicely together. As well as changing your Swap / Paging File you might want to consider that. I did not wait until I had boatloads of problems to do that. So, while I still had issues to be sorted out mostly surrounding memory management that did cut down on numerous issues. **** Good Luck! Ravika
