Ever since I started using RPG Maker VX Ace from steam I have experienced occasions where it would take two or three attempts to launch a Play Test. I would get the standard windows message "RGSS3 Player has stopped working" and asked to "check online for a solution..."etc or "Close Program"

Please help!
