Paradox Launcher v2 does not work

[a39107170]

I bought Victoria 3 on Steam, but I can't play it. When I launch the game, I found paradoxical launcher installation but it doesn't work. Would you like to reinstall?
If you say yes, the error message is attached, what should I do?

Please try this:

- uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows "Apps and features" utility, if still present.

Delete the following folders if still present:

- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

- exit the Steam app entirely
- run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user
- run the game from the PLAY button in Steam

IF that doesn't help, in this folder are some .log files:
C:/users/{userName}/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
Please attach them here.


Note that you can run Victoria3.exe directly from File Explorer, which bypasses the launcher.
