For two days I have been unable to start Arma 3. I am able to bring up the Arma 3 dashboard, but upon pressing play with or without mods I receive Exit code 0xC0000005 -STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION. The dashboard stays up.

By "Dashboard" you must mean the Arma 3 Launcher.
@doc1020, the arma3.rpt files in the ArmaReport.zip file that you uploaded seem fine as they show that the game loaded and you joined a server.
If you go to %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Arma 3 are there any arma3.bidmp or arma3.mdmp files? If so they are crash dumps and could you please archive any 3 arma3.rpt, arma3.bidmp, and arma3.mdmp files with the same time stamp and upload them for the devs to see?
Could you also upload a copy of the launcher logs? Do this by starting the launcher, then clicking OPTIONS then Export Launcher logs to desktop.
That is correct it is the arma 3 launcher. when i check there are not .bidmp or .mdmp files. I have attached the launcher logs.
Latest rpt files are from 12th October which seems to be a little bit older than the latest crash.
Did you change anything about the way you are starting the game in the past few days, perhaps you are now trying to connect to a server on the startup?
So the issue has resolved itself, from what I can tell my anti-virus started to interfere with the launcher. It may have been a new update on the anti-virus that started it. I use AVG anti-virus and the way that i got the launcher to work was to disable the anti-virus while playing Arma 3. I am sorry for the inconvenience as normally i would check those types of things. The community forum should be updated to reflect the anti-virus workaround as well.
Very Respectfully,
