Unhandled Exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION Archipelago mods
I am having a small issue with trying to launch my Satisfactory Client. Whenever i do launch, it will always crash before i get onto the title screen. I've uninstalled, reinstalled, both satisfactory, the mods, and the mod manager multiple times. I have tried removing my old saves, and forcing it to use DX11 and DX12 both options failed, and deleting my configuration file to try to solve the issue.
I can run the game when the mods are uninstalled just fine no issue. I have tried everything a few times changing to experimental and current release for each step. I am currently on current.
The only mods i have currently are Archipelago Randomizer and it's dependencies. I have read the same posts with the same error, none of which have the same problem I am having.

Downgrading The satisfactory mod loader 1.10.0 to 3.9.1 from another post solved this issue.

This is the file Factory Crash Reporter sends me for crashing.
It appears your crash was generated from a copy of the game that does not have mods installed. We likely can't help with it. Please use the Unreal crash reporter dialog to report the error the game developers and/or report it on the official discord and QA site. Note: this can rarely be a false positive if the game crashed very early in the startup sequence, or if SML is not in use.

triggered by @MemnarchPlaysSee, i know it's the mods that are partially doing it because if i have the "mods off" setting set, it will launch just fine.
I also grabbed this in case it was needed.
