After last update its a popup window when starting the game about sending error data. i press yes and the popup window just pops up agian and i cant push anything. Cant access the game.

at a guess, you have your 'settings.conf' file set to read only? 

Some people did this to stop overwriting of settings like view distances, but this also means that when SimRail has updates that needs extra entries in the settings.conf file to allow them to work, you don't get them,
hence it can't save your preference for sending error data or not in the settings.conf file.

Fix so that it will ask once per game start if the settings are read-only
