Different Gameversion

[FlowFlow23]

Hi. Me and my friends were trying to start a multiplayer-session. They always got the message "different gameversion" . They have version 3.5.3 (c1ba) and i have 3.5.3 (23b8). I dont have any mods installed, i uninstalled the game, deleted all folders, downloaded it again, reinstalled, veryfied gamefiles and i still have gameversion 3.5.3 (23b8). Any ideas how to fix it?
Edit: In the launcher it says version c1ba, ingame it says 23b8 (build id : c2d204e3bf9 checksum modified)

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.

That will do it for you, I am sure!
