By "didnt work" do you mean it did not solve your start up issue or the downloaded file was not loaded into Vortex?

i am still stuck on the pre main menu loading screen

but atleast i fixed the launcher

Have you checked the integrity of your game's files yet?

if not:

Go to Steam

Go to Library

Right click on FO4

Go to properties tab

Left click on "Installed files"

On the right you will then see a tab "veryify integrity of game files" Left-Click that

that was the first thing i tried but ima see if it fixes it this time

didnt work, still on the black screen of death

also fixed the issue with having my .7z files open on notes

Ok great a step in the right direction.

We are also at the end of my expertise however, the only option i see is uninstall  and delete save files in the game folder and reinstall game and mods setp by step. But that is the nuclear option you could have come up with by yourself.

There are however better men than me on here, who will hopefully be able to crack this nut for you, so we can avoid that.
