Issue Description:
I tried to jump on another thread with a similar problem but didn’t get any response so I figured I should start my own thread.
When I start the game in steam the launcher appears and when I hit play Darktide launches as a subprocess instead of its own app. No window comes up and I am completely unable to access the game. I have reinstalled it to multiple different folders and even different drives. I did a clean install of my drivers, made sure my OS was up to date and disabled my firewalls to see if anything helps and nothing did. I’ve tried starting a protected game and running as administrator but neither of those would cause the game to launch as anything other than a background process.
I downloaded the game on Game Pass and it starts fine but I have approx 330hrs on the steam version (the one I paid for) and I’d rather not have to start over on another platform.
