Yeah, I have, none of those solutions have seemed to work or just wouldn't work in general.
Try running a repair by closing the launcher, right mouse click on the game shortcut,s elect open file location and delete the BitRaider folder. Then start the launcher.
I didn't see any errors in your DxDiag log but I saw bitraider errors in your Launcher Log.
Also ensure that swtor.exe and launcher.exe are added to your antivirus and firewall safe list.

I've already run a repair, but since you recommended it, I'll run another one.
I'm running Malwarebytes and I disabled it before launching it to ensure it wasn't caught by it, I'll still add it to the safe lists of everything.
Yes definitely add it as sometimes disabling doesn't fully work for some reason.
Another option is to fully remove bitraider as per this guide here. Sometimes it can just cause issues in general and removing it will resolve it. Keep in mind if you do choose to remove it, it is almost like downloading the game again as it is changing the download from a streaming to a non-streaming launcher.

When the repair is done, if it doesn't work I'll follow the process.
