So, I got an error when I tried loading a mission from the Allied campaign so I could finish it.
My laptop screen went black for a bit, started hearing the game soundtrack, and then I got an error message.
I went through the files and found the "except" text document and this is what it had on the top over some numbers and stuff:
Internal Error encountered!
