Would you be able to share a crash report (the pop-up with a ‘GUID’) from a session where mods are disabled, please?

So the crash report window should pop-up every time you encounter a crash - could you disable your mods, wait for the next crash to occur, and share the information in the crash report window with us here? 🙂

Also - it may be worth disabling the Steam Overlay, as we’ve seen some trouble with this recently!
