Did you use any mods that did some strange changes to the base ot palbox etc?
Some mods modify the save file that it will no longer work without the mods themselves due to how things were changed.

Are you trying to load a previous save? If you are, you should try to start a new game and see if that works

The now-outdated version of UE4SS may still be installed/partially installed if you installed that manually

Try going to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Palworld\Pal\Binaries\Win64 and delete the UE4SS files in there. You may also have to delete dwmapi.dll but I don't know if that's a normally a vanilla file, I just know it's in the UE4SS download.

I had same issue,so i did this:
Right click Palworld in your Library
go to Properties
Local Files
Delete all of what you see,
Go back to the Library,
Verify files integrity,
wait for the game to redownload itself.

For me it worked.

If that doesn't work, uninstall Palworld, then go to C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Palworld (or wherever your Palworld installation is at), and delete everything remaining within.

Your Palworld saves aren't in there, so they should be safe, but if you'd like to back them up beforehand to be safe, I BELIEVE they're kept in %appdata%/Local/Pal/Saved

Then reinstall Palworld, and it should be a clean installation again. The process in the comment above achieves the same thing, though deleting entire game installations through the file explorer invites registry errors. Uninstalling the game through the Steam UI is a better practice.

That being said, I'm 90% confident that the now-outdated installation of UE4SS that many mods have as a requirement is what is keeping you from launching the game. Try my previous solution 2 comments up first before trying this.

Most of the content of the Pal Analyzer mod is redundant/vanilla now. It's nice that most Palworld mods don't break with new updates unless the updates change code those mods were built on. UE4SS is generally the only mod that breaks with every update, since it's a framework mod.

Ah thanks for lettings me know, I just removed Analyzer and all my other mods still worked
