I have 7 more mini dumps if needed

I have tried booting with commands for windowed mode autoconfig mode and different resolution.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game while verifying data integrity succesfully each time.
I have also tried moving the game to a smaller ssd 256gb from my 3tb hdd as suggested .
Nothing seems to work.

As for the support thread on steam nada.

My other games seem to work fine.

Yes it is fully up to date.

I think he means "did you update windows right before it stopped launching?"

Some thoughts...

1) Antivirus flagging something and killing the process before game launches?
2) try to "run as administrator" from install folder while Steam is running?
3) uninstall and reinstall Steam itself?
4) change compatibility mode? (for some weird reason DOOM stopped launching for me, same manner as you described. After trying everything, and I don't know why this worked", messing with compatibility mode launched the game)

I had not updated before this started happening the game did updaate within steam tho. I have updated windows 10 after this started it did not change the outcome.
I have tried all the above suggestions nothing seems to work thanks you for the suggestions however as i said i am willing to try anything.

sounds like the game update broke it. Although I’d expect you’d hear more people talking about it under support.

Graphics card driver up to date? That’s my only other idea. Check to see if there are beta versions on steam that have updated available. Some games let you install beta versions before wide update releases

(6b8.ec): Access violation - code c0000005 (first/second chance not available)
Unable to load image C:\Windows\USB Vibration\8101\EZFRD64.dll, Win32 error 0n2

There is a problem with this driver. You are getting "Access Denied" or "File already in use" type error concerning this file. Typically it means that another program has taken exclusive use of it or the application does not have the permissions to read the file or where it is located. You can try removing whatever software you are using for controllers and using a different method of supporting legacy controllers such as X360CE.

Good to hear. Usually when it comes to crash dumps, the last 2 or 3 are all that is needed. I typically only will look at the last 2 and anything older than a few days or a week I ignore and recommend for deletion. Fortunately the minidump you put actually had useful information in it, often this is not the case.

Nice catch

Yeah well if you had bothered to look at the crash dumps, you could have gotten it with your first post also. Instead of posting a bunch of generic comments that idiots on tech websites always try to do.
