I deleted the launcher as indicated and when I tried to play it just blinked and gave the information in the attached image.Steps to reproduce
The initial problem occurred when the new update had a conflict with mods where I don't have mods installed, just all the DLC.I deleted the launcher and any remnants in the indicated step potential solution 1 https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/threads/launcher-issues-troubleshooting.1550846/
