Application Error ACLAYERS.DLL

[nogrod]

I am getting these pretty consistently now during every session of elite dangerous. I use a VR headset so I do not see the error but I lose all HOTAS control since the ED window is no longer the active window (last one caused me to crash into a star, lol).

Any pointers here? I installed the beta and it did the same. I also killed most of my other startup programs.

Love your software so please help

Anyway here is the error log from windows-

This is the first I've seen with an error regarding aclayers.dll.  My guess is you have a corrupted file.  You might want to take a look at this article and see if scanning/repairing may help:

Hope that helps!
