Also do u run anymods?
delete them (IPHLPAPI.dll,hoxhud(because of unstable(delete the Hoxhud.ddl & the Hoxhud folder)), mod_overrides and mods folder,also pdmod bundler if u are using it) if u dont have it - still delete these things

and another thing

Hm. In the list with known interfearing software, there is just Razer's Synapse Statistics.
I´ll see if I / Melons have similar issues with it. If yes, we´ll ask Tobais to add it to the list.

But if you can´t run the game while having this software installed, you´d have to uninstall it if you wish to play.

I´ve downloaded Razer Cortex and didn´t encouter any issues so far. (Besides from my PC getting louder while it´s active.)

Are you certain this is indeed the program which causes your game to not start?
And have you already tried to reinstall it / to ask their developer about the issue?
