This has happened a few times. I have to do a fresh install, then it works fine, but next time I boot up my PC it won't launch whatsoever.

Windows 10 1909 64bit, tried compatibility settings, running as admin, nothing works

EDIT: I found out the problem.....the "lib" folder is removed... I have no antivirus or windows defender active so idk how it keeps being deleted

@CyberFoxHax any ideas?

Well i searched around, just to be sure and well. There is no code interacting with the libs directory whatsoever. Leaving something fishy that's going on with your system. My suggestion would be to mark the folder at read-only via folder permissions.

note: whatever keeps deleting the folder may start throwing errors. That may give you more info.

Not sure if it helps, but I had a similar problem where I tried to add a game to spectacles. It crashed and I wasnt able to start it again. I had to delete the /local/ folder . I have not encountered the problem again tho.

This has never happened with any other program/folder on my system. My system is definitely clean. But the lib folder continues to be removed. What's weird is the backup of spectabis I have on my other external HDD still has the lib folder, and I haven't touched either one in a month or so.
