Description

Hello! I hadn't played Touhou in a few weeks. Today I updated to the new thcrap. I chose the standard english (default) option, and the game wouldn't load at all. Upon system restart, it will now load using the patch shortcut, but perfect cherry blossom runs at warp speed. When loading the unpatched game, it is normal speed. I'm using fully updated Windows 10. Any workarounds? I wouldn't have allowed it to update if i knew this would happen :(

Thanks. Let me know what other details you need.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on fully updated Windows 10 with the patched and unpatched Perfect Cherry Blossom launches, comparing their game speed. Done means the patched game no longer runs at warp speed and remains at normal speed like the unpatched game.
