In december it ran badly ... now, I cannot even start the game
I bought Victoria 3 with all DLCs on December 20th for STEAM. The first week it ran badly. I could play for a maximum of five minutes before the game froze and I could not exit the game, nor the window, not get task manager. When I ran the game without the Pardox laucher, I could play for maybe an hour before a crash.

Since late December I haven’t touched the game. This evening I tried to lauch the game again, and it works even worse.

If I run it through paradox laucher, the game won’t start and I get this error message:

"The Game appears to have crashed or terminated unexpectedly (exit code null). The issue may be solved by veryfying the integrity of your game files and deactivating any mods. If you are using windows, you may also need to install Visual C++ Redistributable and .NET Framework"

I run the game without mods (have never installed any)

If I start the game without the laucher, I can start the game, but now the game suddenly think I have no DLCs.

What I have tried:

* Reinstalled the game
* Ran on Win 8 compatibility mode
* Verifying the Victoria 3 files
* Tried to update the Visual C++ redistributable and .Net Framework (not sure I found the right versions, links to both would be very welcomed)
* Updated Windows
* Updated drivers for hardware (like sound card)
* I have a PC that easily meets recommended requirements:



CPU: Intel i7-12700KF
Ram: 32GB
Graphics: Nvidia GeForce RTX 3080 - 10 GB CPU RAM
Win 11
