For that reason I've had to extract game version numbers etc. from files by alt-tabbing.
Version and language (e.g. 7.10 Hotfix 1, English, etc.).
Steam App ID: 392160
Buiild ID: 17442116
version.dat: 750
X4 file version: 7.5
Whether or not your game is modified using any third party scripts or mods (see note below).
Nope. I have never even installed one.
The game start you originally selected for the game in which the problem occurred.
Timelines Graph 2 final mission defending the Hatikvah Station.
Exact nature of the problem, where and when it occurs and what you were doing at the time.
In the above mission, I have just fended off some Xenon waves. I am contacted by the station to help move research off station. I select "sure, let's get started."
After a few moments, I go to collect some missiles from around the station. Next I want to repair the ship, as it's slightly damaged. I click "Get Up" from the top bar in the GUI - the game instantly freezes.
I have waited for at least 10 minutes by this point - no progress. The game is using almost no CPU and about 2GB of RAM.

I updated my GPU drivers in the last day. I played through some other Graph 2 missions just fine since though.
I also enabled the venture extension yesterday, not realising it was not currently active.
Where appropriate, additional symptoms, error messages, links to saves *, screenshots and crash dump files (see this Wiki entry).
I believe Timeliens doesn't have save files. That said, it must have _some_ way of tracking what's been completed. I found userdata.xml; see attachments.
Your system specifications in the form of a DxDiag report and vulkaninfo (see this Wiki entry).**
