Hi Tony,
None are installed no.
It ran fine for a few days, and now today it refuses again, it would start questing and about 10 minutes into the questing, the game client would crash.
I have tried DX9 & DX11.
I have uninstalled the VC++ tools and reinstalled them with fresh versions as well View attachment 203049
Since you indicate "it works for a few days then it doesn't", this makes it sound like its the Antivirus causing the problem. Most Antivirus get updates a couple of times a day (without asking or notifying). It sounds like a recent update to yours is now interfering with Honorbuddy.
We'd suggest you give the Antivirus a look first, then if no joy, start looking for other interfering programs. If you find a new one that's not on our list, please let us know.
