Albion not starting

[Bax]

Anybody else having issues on Steam?
I click play and after a few seconds it goes back to being able to click play again, the Albion launcher doesn't come up, just doesn't work.
I've restarted my PC, I've tried verifying the files for Albion, and still not working, it was working previously before today.

They have a 1 hour maintance everyday at this time

It's not the game that's not working, it's the launcher, it won't start at all, I've uninstalled, reinstalled, I've even tried uninstalling on Steam, and installing the separate launcher outside of Steam, the AlbionLauncher.exe just doesn't start.
I've tried disabling my antivirus, I've been to my msconfig and disabled all non microsoft applications and tried a boot like that and still not working.

Check if there is anything in the launcher log %AppData%\Local\Sandbox Interactive GmbH\Albion Online Launcher\launcher.log

There's nothing there, probably because I've uninstalled/reinstalled multiple times.
And unfortunately it's definitely my PC, as my laptop starts the launcher without a problem. (from Steam)
:(

Same problem here, I don't understand what is the problem with the launcher :/

The game is still offline. Maybe you guys get better luck once its up. https://www.albionstatus.com/

Hopefully *fingers crossed*
But it's the launcher that's not starting, usually on down time I have no problem starting the launcher (playing since 2017). Guess we'll see soon.

Nah, still the same issue.

You have any error in the event log after trying to start the game?

[Bax]

No, just blank, thanks for trying to help though, I've sent a support ticket to them, see if they can suggest something else

Not sure if anybody is still having this issue, I have tried everything from clean Windows 10 install, updating GPU driver to previous ones (last few months, which Albion was working) and nothing worked.

However, using "Device Manager" selecting my GPU here, and then "update driver" and then selecting an old GPU driver from 2020, has fixed the issue......

I maybe have a solution. Go to local file and open launch_albion_online.exe. Then u start albion without steam.
