Does anyone know the possible problems with my stellar is, I went to go start a new match but whenever i clicked on done it immediately crashed, i figured that it may have to do with mods but after they were all uninstalled still nothing. Then i remembered at one point of time that if you make a new species that you cant have it share a name with any other species but that also couldnt have been it. I've ran it as administrator and went through the leaps and bounds when i first got this game via gamepass to try and get it to work only for the problem to be that it has to be launched in windows at least once for the game to work so I'm assuming its something weird that is making my game crash

We have updated our Community Code of Conduct. Please read through the new rules for the forum that are an integral part of Paradox Interactive’s User Agreement.
In the game launcher please set Display mode to Borderless. THEN go here:
And run the x86 and x64 installers there.
IF that doesn't help, Please do a full **clean** re-install:
- move any valued save games elsewhere, and user_empire_designs.txt from /Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/ if you have made any custom empires or races.
- "uninstall" in Steam-Stellaris
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/Stellaris AND Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- add stellaris.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 you need to make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam Stellaris or Documents Stellaris locations, before installing again.
Also if you have FRAPS or the MSI Gaming App or Rivatuner installed, disable it as it clashes with this game.
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/Stellaris/settings.txt and pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox Interactive/Stellaris/logs/ folder, attach here system.log , error.log .
