I did a search, but couldn't find any info. Any help would be appreciated.

I recently reinstalled Silent Hunter 5. and an unable to get the game to play.

On the first try of playing the game, after a reboot, the game crashes to the desktop after the intro animation.
After the second-fourth try,I can select the first mission, which then loads, but immediately after the loading screen I receive the following error:

"The internet connection experiences problems and the current game session was saved. Please wait until the internet connection is restored or press OK button to return to the main menu."

My internet connection if fine. I receive the same error when I use Uplay to install the game or if I use the DVD to install the game.
I have tried using Uplay in Offline mode, ran Uplay and the Silent Hunter 5 EXE in compatibility mode with admin privileges.
All will no luck getting the game to run.

My system is running Windows 10.
Silent Hunter 5 ver 1.20
No mods....yet

I have also posted this fix here

Fixed my issue.
I had 27 TAP Adapters installed!!

I followed the steps here which uninstalled all of them.

I was them able to get the game to work.

See you all in the North Atlantic!

The Burbster, seems to know a lot about the game, but also seems to just post the same links over and over. Does not really help very much. I did not like all the mods, just way too much. Would prefer to just fix and play the game as it was originally designed.
No disrespect intended.

No disrespect ? " Does not help very much " and you spelt his name wrong LMAO

He's posting same links to answer the same old questions asked over and over mostly as a result of many who can't be bothered reading guides. Anything not covered almost always gets his full attention

The game as it was originally designed was not only broken but missing a lot of the best features from the previous Silent Hunter series

There is no magic fix for SH5 its takes a little research and patience to get working , when that's done its arguably the best subsim out to date

Just installed SH4 and SH5 from disk onto Windows 10 this weekend. Haven't played either since the days of XP.

PROBLEM: If I selected full screen, they would always run cut off in a small rectangle in the upper left of the screen with no sound or ability to input commands. Running windowed was possible but kind of sucked.

SOLVED: I was running at 2560 x 1440 with 125% text scale. I set my screen resolution in windows to 1920 x 1080 with 100% scale, and both games now run full screen at this resolution with no problems.

Perhaps this may help some of you with high-res displays.
