An error box pops up that the "Program has stopped working -- this has been reported to Windows." And that's it.

Does anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

This all takes place on my 3 year-old HP Envy 64-bit pc using WIN 10.

Thanks for any suggestions!

EDITED UPDATE: I'm just going to start my replay season over with OOTP17. The team I was managing in OOTP14 wasn't doing so well, anyway. I'll put 14/15/16 to bed and just re-start with 17. Thanks for your suggestions and support!

Clarify something for me. There is no "resume game" involved in importing leagues from previous versions. The import function takes the world.dat file and creates a "my league.lg" folder in the saved games folder of each version you import it into. It appears as a loaded game ready to play on the same date as the original file. To get to v17 you should have imported the world.dat 3 times from v14 to v15 to v16 and finally to v17.
