MKXP Branch - Windows 10 - Crash on Startup
Just displays a black screen window and crashes without error message in a few seconds after.

I ran this a little after release ~5 years ago without issue, on my old windows 7 machine. Not sure what's causing this crash other than the new OS.
Old default rpg maker VX game.exe works fine.

I get it's a beta branch, but last dream - world unknown defaults to mkxp , so seems it should work on windows 10 too..

And btw I'm a computer hardware engineer, so did quite a lot of my usual troubleshooting to try ot solve this myself, can't figure it out. It doesn't generate any logs so hard to debug. All it makes is a default windows .dmp file.. Which when analyzed in event viewer just points to a regular application crash, only linked dll is a core windows file:
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\SYSTEM32\ntdll.dll

Not something that can be modified. (and i've verified it's integrity, no issues)
plus this install has ran hundreds of other games without issue, its very stable. And this includes a lot of other rpg maker vx titles, and even mkxp , though just newer builds which are publicly available.
I tested the publicly available mkxp builds, and mkxp-z.. Both run without the same crash ,but instead complain about the omega7 steam achievements script and fail to continue due to it.

So yea no idea what's maybe wrong other than perhaps OS incompatibility. Anyone else successfully running it on windows 10 on mkxp beta crash (or default branch on world unknown).

Only other log generated is the steam overlay log, it also detects its crashed but provides no detail. Disabling steam overlay = same result.

Tested both 32-bit and 64-bit builds.
Have a decently high end system (I7 8700K, RTX 2060 Super, 16gb ram)

Is there a special command line I can run to make it generate a debug log?

Haven't a found a solution on Win10.

Installed windows 11 and working fine, so it has something to do with my Win10 config.. But really can't figure it out, and quite strange since dozens of other games work fine.
