Launcher crashes with exit code 2 after 2 seconds.

Hey,

I've tried just about every option for troubleshooting the launcher problems the last two days.

I've tried both the steam as well as the standalone version of the launcher. Watching both launcher execute using procmon, the only noticeable thing I've seen is that both processes exits with status code 2, indicating some trouble with permissions. However, I've not managed to deduce anything further, as the launcher itself doesn't log anything, just that is sending crashreports under /logs.

I'm on Windows 11, i9-12900k, 32GB RAM, ample hard drive space. Running the launcher(s) with and without compatibility mode for XP (SP3) and W7, both with and without admin rights. Same result both times. The only visual confirmation is that the taskbar flickers as well as the process briefly appearing in task manager and procmon, before exiting.
