Loaded game fresh. I am forced to use the original user name (otherwise ubi server indicates that the serial number has been used). The first time run ubi server syncs saved programs and the user dat file, and the problem continues.

It does appear that the user dat file is the problem as the problem occurs regardless of saved game or "classic" game that I try.

It appears that you cannot run SH5 without making at least one gamelauncher contact with the server.

Out of principle I'd rather not buy another copy just to get a new serial number to install fresh. Has anyone else had this problem?
