Since today morning, BYOND (version 515.1647) has been constantly stuck on the loading game information screen when opened, with restarting, reinstalling, rebooting IE mode in Edge, attempting to manually install IE11, changing the data location from Documents and probably a couple other things I tried over the hours not resulting in any changes, sole exception being attempting to use version 516.1651, which launched as expected.
My OS is Win11.

Lummox JR	Make sure that wherever the BYOND data folder is located, it isn't hooked up to OneDrive. If it is, disconnect it from OneDrive completely. Somehow OneDrive messes it up.

Adriano20037	My Documents folder has not been synced to OneDrive ever since I had a system upgrade last month, OneDrive was not enabled at all, and the data is located in C:\BYOND anyway at this point.

Adriano20037	Looks like after a few dozen minutes of being left to do its thing, BYOND switches to being stuck on loading live games instead, and I did attempt reconnecting and switching to VPNs and using CTRL+L to log in followed by dreamseeker for a direct connection to my server of choice with no success.
