Summary:
I've been having an issue where my launcher is bugged. I've been trying everything I can do to fix this issue. This issue has been present since I installed the game, but I have been able to play by launching the game via the direct .exe instead of the launcher. The issue itself launches the launcher, but the only visual changes are that the system says it is running, and the cursor changes for a brief moment before returning to normal. Nothing comes up to launch or change load order of the game.
What I've tried:
Verify Integrity of Game files,
Fresh Installs,
Unblocking DLLs (Unsure of this one because I've never heard of DLLs being blocked before)
Deleting BIN, then Verifying again.
Trying different builds/betas.
Checking Security/Ransomware as well as allowed apps through firewalls. As well as making sure controlled folder access is disabled.
Changing compatibility modes/ running from administrator.
Updating .NET and other frameworks/GPU updates via one of the threads on Taleworlds support and making sure everything is up to date.
I've also tried running the CrashUploader.Publish.exe but nothing runs.
I have never once installed mods, I did however try to change the config once to try and initiate cheats to go around another bug I was experiencing in-game which wasn't allowing my character's spouse to conceive children. I'd get the notification briefly she was pregnant but it wouldn't ever come to term. Then I realized I needed to install mods in order for that console command, and like I said I never installed mods. I just changed a 0 to 1 once to activate cheat mode, but that was before this fresh install.
I've also tried disabling and uninstalling OneDrive, and separating my saves, so they are not changed when I did a fresh install.
I've disabled all relevant M&B folders from read only.
I possibly tried other things but the amount of things I've tried is just got to the point where I'm having a hard time remembering them.
Also it appears I can't get the crashuploader to work. Perhaps because this is a Launcher bug/issue this doesn't run for it? Like I said previously everything else seems to run fine, the game runs, but I'd like to figure out this launcher issue so that I can have a completed experience and possibly dabble in mods in the future after my first unmodded playthrough.
I've checked the logs, and I received this crash log.
How to Reproduce:
Run the Mount and Blade 2 Launcher Program through Steam, or through the Launcher .exe or shortcut.
Have you used cheats and if so which: I have not used cheats, but I did activate cheat mode once. I however never activated any shortcut cheat keys. I only changed the config to say it was in cheat mode.
