Right on.
Like, you mentioned. this is a departure for me in gaming as well. And so far it's been a blast!
After you get the feel for it, check these out...

https://truckersmp.com/
http://promods.net/ (currently having hosting issues)

The first adds multiplayer, the second adds massive amount of content. (They are not compatible with each other).

Have fun!

Correct. There is no reason that is a problem. Your video card supports it, and it is "just as good" as DirectX. They are just two different languages for software developers can use to make your game. It's actually kind of cool that the support both.

Where you would notice a difference is in really high end applications that are very targeted to a particular system to eek out as much performance as possible. Usually developers would only do those special things in one of those tools, not both.

You may want to investigate why you are having issues with DirectX anyway, just for peace of mind (or nawing interest). But you could run OpenGL in ETS2 and not know the difference.

If the registry was corrupted, wouldn't I have issues altogether?

It's possible to have corruption in specific key paths that are only limited to one application, but I don't think that's your issue. Unless for some reason the DirectX settings themselves have an issue. I would try the reinstall of vid drivers. But there should also be no reason to just run in OpenGL. In fact, it might be better depending on some settings.

Have you tried explicitly starting with directx or opengl? Or safe mode for that matter (all of which should be accessible by right clicking app in steam)

I'm pretty new to the game.... but it doesn't have multiplayer?! Unless there is a mod for that? I which case I would suggest seeing if the mod devs have support.

EDIT: Woah, is this what you have? https://truckersmp.com/
Sweet! If so, they have a support system on the main page.

Which paths? It should be saving to
%USERPROFILE%\Documents\Euro Truck Simulator 2

What happens after you get that message? It DOES say there is a problem when changing versions it starts saves over (i forget the actual text). In case you had an early demo or.... some 'free' version.

Jamie, if can you ALT-TAB over to the window when this is happening and see the game? (Even if it then goes away?)
Also, what graphics card are you using and are you running the game in Dx or Ogl ?
