About a week ago I was having issues with download times and crashes after downloading the new patch. After noticing that during the loading of the save, the process would hang up on "Handling Bookmarks and Links" for several minutes, at SteveP's suggestion I deleted my Bookmarks and Links files and everything seemed fine. Yesterday my fictional team went into the next calendar year and I had an auto save on 1/1/21. After simming through until mid-April, the game crashed again. Now load times are back up to several minutes, hanging in the same spot, even though I have again deleted those same files a couple times. I am sure if I attempt to play I will get more crashes also.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

edit: If I uninstall and reinstall the game, will my saved game remain intact in my OOTP10 Folder?
