    on steam / windows.
    have tried launching in 32 bit or 64 bit, game reads as "running" on steam but I hear the noise of an error window (no message appears) and I have to force close the application.
    worked fine in the past, fresh install of windows 10 so no viruses or malware.
    tried with discord closed, no mods subscribed, verifying files, uninstalled and re-installed several times, deleted storage folder, deleted entire game folder for fresh install, every suggestion I could try.

    I literally just bought 2 extra copies to get some friends into the game, any assistance would be greatly appreciated, altho I have gone through every thread I could find with a simular issue and either I could not follow their solution (ie: can't edit a config file if the game has never launched and generated one) also aware that many simular threads have had no support in almost a month, but what else can I do I guess?

    Disable the discord overlay for starbound in discord itself and see if the issue persists.
    If yes please provide the new log.

    I believe that log was already with the overlay fully disabled as it was suggested in other threads, but I double checked it was off and made another attempt, new log is as collows

    Thanks, just wanted to rule out the overlay issue. It seems something is preventing Starbound from accessing existent libraries. In this case its failing on the discord library.
    You can try launching Starbound as admin and/or adding Starbound to the exception list of your antivirus software. This normally should do the trick.

    neither starting as admin, making an antivirus exception, or both worked, log file looks identical to the one listed previously, this is kinda blowing my mind, as I had over 100 hours just before setting up a fresh windows install

    still unresolved :/

    go to /appdata/roaming/discord and delete the whole folder.
