I am also running the most current release of trainer and game (steam version) right now and I am not having any issues (besides some strange behaviour with my keyboard layout switching not completely matching when SoaSE:R is running; used Trainer Customizer to fix it).
I just uninstalled Avast, Turned off Windows Fire Wall restarted, ran trainer and still same the same issue of a crash after F1.
Are you hitting F1 at Main Menu or some where else. I may uninstall and reinstall and see if that fixes the problem
Any other ideas? As I can't figure out what is wrong
