Removing mtihint.sys and mticache.sys in C>Windows>System32>drivers worked for me.
High probability the anti-cheat is blocking the launch based on the files in drivers folder, the files need to be deleted/moved could differ based on the software's you have installed on your system.
I followed @lasop123 solution and then restored folders and files back to the original directory (C>Windows>System32>drivers) one at a time and kept relaunching the game till I found the exact files that were causing the issue.
Hope this helps 🙂

Its possible some other file is getting flagged, best case is to do trial and error. I tried to search the files which others suggested but none of them were there in my folder. So I had to move bunch of files and figure it out.
Removing the "Not Verified" drivers using Autoruns worked for me. They weren't marked in red, which threw me for a while, because I was looking for red ones. I then stared at it a long time and noticed a couple were not verified.
