Game won't start. Any way to reset game settings from outside? [RESOLVED]

[valentin]

Bought Carrion a few days ago, and finished all base game content. Was messing around with the game's video settings when I hit the "Immersive Fullscreen" button (or something similar; I don't remember very well). The game's screen went black, and all I could see was my mouse. I couldn't access any other windows on my mac, but the game's sound was still running and I could hear the button sfx when I moved my mouse. I ended up restarting my mac, and now the game won't run. I have a Macbook Pro set up for rendering 3D animation, so the storage or RAM on my computer shouldn't be the issue. The game ran perfectly before I fudged with the video settings.

I don't mind factory resetting the game if I have to; I was going to start a new playthrough anyways. Is there any way to reset my video settings without running the game? I've tried deleting and reinstalling the software, and unsyncing my cloud data before deleting my local data and trying to run the game again. No dice so far. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

EDIT: Here's my gamelog. https://pastebin.com/urG0NJqC
EDIT 2: When I run the game from steam, I wait for about 30 seconds before a popup appears with the message "Carrion quit unexpectedly." These are the error details. https://pastebin.com/Zg60cCfN

FINAL EDIT: Turns out it was my antivirus software that was aborting the game startup. I turned the software (I use Bitdefender Antivirus) off just long enough so I could open the game and turn off the "exclusive fullscreen" option. Game runs fine after that. No idea why it started aborting the game startup with Exclusive Fullscreen mode enabled, but this feels like a very specific issue and I managed to fix it. Hopefully this isn't part of some bigger issue.

Glad you've managed to find a workaround. Sadly, over-zealous antivirus software is not something we have full control of. I had already filed false-positive claims to a bunch of AV software vendors flagging Carrion "malicious" for no reason, including Bitdefender. At the end of the day, it's all up to their heuristics, though.
