Game Wont Start, Fallout 4 is not responding

[RedEnchilada]

Hey everyone, recently I've been having some issues with fallout 4. I'd start up f4se, an empty command prompt would pop up, and then the app would open with a black screen until i clicked on it, then it would tell me that fallout 4 is not responding. any help would be great, thanks.

[HeyYou]

Anything changed on your machine lately? Added or removed any mods?

[HeyYou]

Rename your ini files in the My Games\Fallout 4 folder, try the game again.

[RedEnchilada]

rename them to what exactly?

[HeyYou]

I just change .ini, to .bak. That is adequate to the task.
