1.32.1 unplayable

[PotatoeSkinzzz]

Hello! Thanks in advance for any help.

Every runs as normal until I get to the main menu screen. There is takes up to 2 minutes just for the game to recognize that my mouse is hovering over a button. If i click the "single player" or any other button, the game will not react unless I tab out and then back into the game. This seems to happen with every single input, even once a game is started. Every action is not recognized by the game unless I tab out and back in. I've been playing the game daily since 1.32 dropped and have had no issues until I tried to play last night on 1.32.1. I have not been having issues with any other game and I doubt is an issue with my PC. I have attempted to load the game via EU4.exe with the same result. I have also uninstalled, deleted every file associated with the game and then reinstalling with the same result. I have no mods enabled. My PC specs are listed below. Thanks again for your support.

Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-10875H CPU @ 2.30GHz 2.30 GHz
Installed RAM 16.0 GB
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Graphics Card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2060

Yea and now there is a new bug where the cpu won’t even turbo up to capacity on mobile Intel chips. Atleast with 11th gen 8 core cpus.

1.32.1 is not known to be any slower than 1.32 , and both are faster than the 1.31.x patches. So I don't know what could be causing this for you.

Please do a full **clean** re-install:

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "uninstall" in Steam-EU4
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/EU4 AND Documents/Paradox Interactive/EU4 folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- add EU4.exe to the exceptions list of your antivirus app; ESPECIALLY if you have Windows Defender, add it to the Ransomware "Apps Allowed Through" list.
- start the game with no mods active and test

In particular make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam EU4 or Documents EU4 locations, before installing again.


IF that doesn't help:
DXDIAG is a program you run from the Windows search box on the task bar. After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.

Please attach here your Documents/Paradox Interactive/EU4/settings.txt and pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/EU4/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log .
