[RESOLVED] OOB Window doesn't open in any scenario.

Post by binaryfireball »

The window technically opens but I am unable to focus it so I can only see the preview if I hover over it in the windows task bar(the preview is blank)
I can provide a save but also Im not sure it matters because it happens in every scenario I open. Any ideas?

That sounds like a very strange behavior.

If possible, can you provide a video recording of this?

ok I validated the integrity of the game files and I think it's fixed? It's weird though because I tried that before (it updated some files)... I also removed some workshop scenarios. I wonder how that could effect it though. Either way I'll post here if I run into it again

Ok I'm running into this issue again. Here's a video

as you can see I give it some time to load (I remember reading elsewhere that it may take time to load the OOB but I would think it shouldn't take this long if this is the case)
I then try to click on the window and nothing pops up, the preview is blank.

Have you reset secondary windows?

Hey thanks for the tip! It appears that the window spawns off both of my monitors (perhaps because of dpi scaling)
followed the instructions here as a workaround https://superuser.com/questions/1749893 ... ckly-reset
what I have to do is hold shift then right click the window in the task bar and select move then hit (win+shift+right arrow) and the window sticks to my mouse at which point I can place it wherever.

edit: It also appears under Options: General is the "Reset positions of secondary windows" button. I didn't know about that one, will try that in the future.
