Hi, please try deleting the "C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord" folder.

I have pretty well the exact same problem. Had played in April/May, then stopped. Looked to come back a couple of days ago but the launcher no longer is working. The launcher will start and will click play - then will seem like it will launch and then closes/stops running. Tried some of the other solutions that I've seen - running it from the bannerlord.exe, the above to delete folder, and also changing to the beta version, and all no love. Hope you can help.

Hi, please try deleting the "C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord" folder.

I think it worked! I had managed to launch the launcher by deleting mods that I had forgotten (sorry for that), and after deleting the folder you said when I launch the game I still have a white screen but waiting a bit the game ends up starting. Thank you for your help!
