CK2 (latest patch) Minor Titles show twice and cannot appoint Advisors

[CONSTANTINE MOR]

Hi all. Self evident from the title. Playing Vanilla, Windows 10, and for some reason the list of minor titles shows double (meaning two Jesters, two dwarves etc).
Once one post is filled, the duplicate remains empty but unable to be filled.
Same with Advisors in my council.
It seems I have two spots empty (where it was supposed to be one empty slot, since I already have one advisor) but I simply cannot fill it (whomever I choose it simply won't accept the entry),
I would appreciate any idea!

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

- move any valued save games elsewhere
- "uninstall" in Steam-CK2
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/CK2 AND Documents/Paradox/CK2 folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- add ck2game.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 with a new campaign - NOT by loading any existing save

In particular make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam CK2 or Documents CK2 locations, before installing again.

Good luck with that!
