@escheeI've been having the EXACT same issue as well. I've tried everything you mentioned too, and none of it works. It's been two days now, and I still haven't able to get past the splash screen. I never had this problem until this update.
I have no idea how an update can suddenly make our accounts the issue, but here we are, I suppose.
I sent them an email about this too, so hopefully this unique problem of ours gets fixed. :/
@evabrutal If we both have it, we cant be the only ones..
i have no clue how to get past this..
