Unable to launch game.
I am getting the error "Launching the game failed. Please verify the integrity of your game files. If you are using Windows, you may also need to install Visual C++ Redistributable and .NET Framework."

I have already tried verifying integrity, and nothing was installed.
I tried installing .NET Framework, and it told me that I already had it.
I tried installing VC_redist.x64 and .x86, and I assume that should have taken care of that.
I restarted my PC.
I tried launching the executable directly from binaries.

Do any of y'all have any ideas as to what I'm doing wrong?

Final Edit:
Hey all,
My problem is almost certainly because my CPU doesn't support AVX Instructions.
Paradox has confirmed that this will never be fixed.
It’s worthwhile to just refund the game, at least until they actually allow us to play.

Avx is a set of instructions that is not compatible with some older computers. No fix.

The game works, the launcher doesn't. Run victoria3.exe from the root directory and it's great. \\\Steam\steamapps\common\Victoria 3\binaries\victoria3.exe

Try go C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Victoria 3\binaries. Then start Victoria3. Please write your error text. Mine - точка входа в процедуру dbgcore.MiniDumpWriteDump не найдена в библиотеке DLL dbghelp.dll

No error message at all, even if I start it from powershell. It just doesn't do anything.

I have the problem already at the Paradox launcher it just tell that an error ocurred and that's it. The error is with some settings files like "Settings.formatVersion should be integer". Whatever that means.

Same so far. If anyone gets it to work after it not working let us know.

Same problem here, and it's definitely not a processor problem. I have a current generation core i9, top spec PC all round and I get the launcher problem too.
