Describe the bug Can't start the game, same issue as 472: https://github.com/remyroy/CDDA-Game-Launcher/issues/472

Some older versions work.

To Reproduce Probably can't reproduce without a specific system setup

Expected behavior A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

Desktop (please complete the following information):

Additional context I have downloaded the Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable as linked in https://github.com/remyroy/CDDA-Game-Launcher/releases/tag/v1.4.11 I have turned my firewall off. I have turned my antivirus off. I have executed as administrator. Attempted fix by deleting config.db as described in the readme, that did not resolve the issue. Nothing worked. This is with version 1.4.13 The debug version as linked in issue #472 does work, neither of the other ones from the same version do.

There are a few things that are strange.

The debug version as linked in issue #472 should be crashing on start right now. It has the same issue as the one described in #507 .

Did you have a look in your log file? It should be in %LOCALAPPDATA%\CDDA Game Launcher\app.log . There might be some clue in there. Could you send it here?

If there are still some issues, I might be building another debug release for you to test.

Yeah, correction, the older debug version does not actually work anymore, as you stated, goes unresposive and crashes. I checked the log file, and it seems that the versions that don't actually launch don't even leave logs, I tried opening the 1.4.13 launcher a few times but none of them are in the logs. app.log

I've just built a debug release. You can find it here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/cfcpxaq1fk9yl6t/cddagl_portable_v1.4.13.debug.zip?dl=1

Download this release, start the launcher with launcher-debug.bat. It will create a file called debug.txt. Send that file back to me. It might provide more information regarding your issue to help me fix it.
