There is still interference from a Discord mod it seems. From previous reports, I can see this was caused by Discord Rich Presence.

> I do have a discord rich presence mod, and looking at it now it does use a couple dependencies installed outside of the normal mod folder, so maybe they get loaded even if mods are disabled/mod folder removed. Next time the crash happens I’ll try removing them and seeing if that fixes it.
