This thread is mainly about CK2, but I have the same issue with EU4, so I imagine they're related.
I can't reach the launcher on either game. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling all c++ distributables, reinstalling directx, setting the game to run in the small resolution in compatibility, unsubscribed from all mods, tried to reinstall multiple times, verified files multiple times, the only thing I don't know if I tried that I've seen suggested anywhere else is the part where people say "Visit the windows update site and let it download any .Net framework files it wants" because I"m not too sure what the "windows update site" is. When I look it up, all I find is it telling me how to use windows update on my pc, which says I have no updates.
I'm running with windows 10 if that helps anything.
On EU4 the launcher shows up pure white briefly before disappearing, ck2 the launcher just doesn't show up at all, but in both cases the game is inaccessible.
One thing I was wondering about, in my documents, all logs (such as settings) are blank files. I wasn't sure if they are created the first time the game is successfully run, or if they're supposed to have something on them from installation.
Edit: Stellaris runs fine
