    Yeah, that won't work for me, Proxos, because the launcher wouldn't open at all.

    So, in case anybody else gets this problem: the only solution is to reset your PC. Apologies.

Oh well the driver needed updating anyways

Have you taken the system to a clean boot per this link to see if the launcher appears ?

Also when starting the launcher , use right mouse click and start as administrator for now

Just did the clean boot, and the launcher still doesn't start up.

    Another recent case of the launcher not appearing was found to be with that persons router , are you in a position to tether to a mobile just to test a different internet connection

    just so it can be eliminated as a possible cause ?

      And still no luck, unfortunately.

        If you press the windows key and type reliability and open the reliability history , is there anything listed about the time starting swtor ?

        There is the below listed in the dxdiag as well but unsure of the cause , it appears to be related to USB driver of some description

        Problem signature:
P1: HostProblem
P2: HostTimeout
