I made some tests while obviously trying to launch the game through frosty manager, checking mods one by one and also without any mod activated and simply the game doesn't launch no matter what I do.

 

the game through origin launches fine though.

 

I don't know what could be, I don't have permission issues and I also excluded frosty and inquistion folders in my antivirus (i'm using kaspersky)

 

any help?

I'm having the same issue. I've set admin permission for DAI, Frosty and Origin, and have even tried disabling all mods. Whenever I try to launch the game using frosty mod manager, it gives no errors, boots up origin, starts opening DAI process, but the game never actually starts.

 

Checking the task manager, there is an instance of DAI open - which prevents me from launching another using origin (which says the game is running) or frosty - but never actually loads.

 

I've tried it with no mods, I've tried reinstalling DAI, and I've tried downloading a new version of frosty. No dice.

 

Anyone have any experience with this?

Found an unpleasant, but seemingly effective workaround. If you delete the "ModData" folder every time you alter your modlist, Frost MM will regenerate the folder when you next try to launch through it. Then everything works as it should. 

 

Apparently, the ModData folder wasn't deleted when I uninstalled DAI, which I probably should have realized.

This is the only thing that works for me, too.

...what a mess. But now that I'm returning to this game and experiencing these never-before issues, this is the only solution that thus-far has worked for me. Thank you for that.

I'm truly baffled by this. I know it could be worse, but I would love to know the reasoning behind it all and address it with a less-exhausting solution.

This work around did not work for me, I still can't properly launch the game via Frosty.

Frosty not working for me either, only got 3 mods in frosty and it sits stuck at 'applying mods' which never completes once I hit launch. Using 1.0.5.1, they're activated in the right pane so no clue what it's doing. Tried deleting the mod data file and that was no help. It's a real shame MO2 doesn't work for this game.

i stuck in applying mods too but i figure it out, not sure it work for you and anyone else, if you backup your PATCH folder in UPDATE folder even you change your name ---backup--- or stuff that will make frosty mod manager not launching, you need to change your ---backup--- folder to another folder away from UPDATE folder 
example your backup folder:
DAI\Update\---backup--- ( this will make frosty wont lauching )
need to change ---backup--- to another folder
DAI\---backup---
you good to go, hope this help people in future
