Launcher isn't Showing

[Wolfey34]

(Mac) After I downloaded 2.8.2 I started Ck2 the application popped up then disappeared before opening up the launcher and just brought me back to steam. I went to the previous patch and no issue but I want to play on the new patch. I deleted all mods and it didn't change. How would I fix it?

Update: (Don't know if I should put this in here or in the the comments so here you go) I clean re-installed and the bug continued. What should I do?

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.
- start the game with no mods active and test

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

**File Locations on Mac OS X**
The executable and DLC folder are in Users/USER/Library/Application Support/Steam/SteamApps/common/Crusader Kings II/
On OS X 10.8.x and later, Apple have hidden the /Users/USER/Library/ folder. To see it go to the Finder, hit command-shift-G (ie Go To) and type in ~/Library/ .
The user files (settings.txt, error logs, saved games, gfx, mods) are in /Users/USER/Documents/Paradox Interactive/Crusader Kings II/ .

No real idea then, I have no such issue on my own iMac. Perhaps opt into the current beta in the Steam Betas tab for this game?
