Amazingly that worked, well sort of. Not particularly stable, but it will load and run a mission. It crashes if you go back to the menu and try and load another mission. Odd things happen in combat and the flight physics feels off. You can kill the opposing pilot and crew but the plane keeps flying regardless of hits, though damage shows. Maybe that's how that patch was? Or maybe it's the mixture of more recent files with the older patch.
So it isn't a solution, but it shows it's the most recent patch which is the cause of the Launcher.exe crash issue.
Ubisoft support insist Windows XP is still a supported OS for the game, but so far haven't come up with any suggestions different to those made by users in this forum.
