I cleared my temp files and verifying game files now. I'll let you know if that makes a difference.

Sadly no luck. Looked up Watchdog.exe and found this: https://www.file.net/process/watchdog.exe.html

you can probably solve this by deleting the watchdog directory temporarily and then try to launch the game again.

Yes, I experiencing this as well.
After launcher starts, when I press Play "Watchdog has stopped working".
I've installed latest NVIDIA drivers, all updates on my operation system and the error is still there.
Does that mean I will not be able to play the game after patch 1.2.0 come out?

Yup same issue. I've been playing on my steamdeck and not once have I had a problem until I decided to try the 1.2 beta upon release. Tried verifying and fresh install, no luck. Guess I'll just keep using 1.1.5 until 1.2 moves beyond beta.

Could you upload and share the latest log you find under C:\ProgramData\Mount and Blade II Bannerlord\logs\watchdog_log_xxxx.txt ? You can also send it by mail to support@taleworlds.com

I would, but I had to uninstall the game and reinstall when I tried to roll back to 1.1.5. The game wouldn't start at all when I went back to the previous patch.

No worries, can you confirm if your OS is Windows 7?

Maybe you should post that problem here:

"Technical support"
https://steamcommunity.com/app/261550/discussions/17/

Lately, many posts about Beta problems and the devs are answering as well.

I do not know for exact what helped.
Was it developers made it fixed or what I did, but what ever it is, here what helped me.
I completely uninstalled the game, deleted all the folders and files of the game (program files/steam, program data, documents folder), reinstalled beta 1.2 and it worked.
Good luck.
