Re: [0.15.x] Game won't launch on 0.15.x (doesn't even create window or log)

So. Interestingly the the .msi installed version is now also being blocked as well. The only time it ran was when it launched at the end of the installer (e.g. 'check this box to launch factorio') - all subsequent attempts to launch the game now result in the AV blocking the game. log for the steam ...

Re: [0.15.x] Symantec AV blocking game (steam & .zip standalone)
