StuardBr's post in Falout 3 freezes on main menu if open via MO 1.3.11 was marked as the answer
OK, i think THIS TIME i found the cause of the problem.
I reinstalled my system as i do every 6 months and with this, i can know if the problem is something in my PC. Backup, list of programs installed, etc... Reinstalled win10, drivers, steam and Fallout3 (and dependencies). Tested and ok. Installed FOSE, tested and ok, tested MO and... Ok too... So, let's install the other programs to test.
After reinstall all previous programs, the problem back. So, closing one after one, i found that a program that i use, OverWolf, is causing the problem with MO.
Overwolf provide some functionalities when i'm playing, like automatic gifs, statistics, etc but, to work,it needs to do some type of "overlay", like steam. This overlay is ok for FO3, but apparently is incompatible with MO. Closing the OverWolf in system tray solve the problem.
The only thing is in my head is, WTF a third party software will cause problems in the way the MO use the "archives.txt" and with some other mods... I found a post in the Nexus Forums (https://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/1550213-freeze-on-startup-seems-to-be-induced-by-awop/) with a similar problem, but with the NewVegas. All is pointing to a mod problem, but in the end, was Overwolf too... I think is a good thing to put in the guide of STEP, close this type of program if problems appear.
Anyway, thank you all for the attention and help :)
