    Purchased the safety glasses off the community market and the game has not opened once since. I have tried every thing suggested to me so far and am out of options.

    Crash report:

    AFAIK:
    GOG and Social Club are closed, yet it's still giving the warning

    playing start game never even opens the launcher, it just takes me back to my post on the crash report.

    Is this problem only with S&Box?
    Common options include reinstalling, checking the Steam file cache, and perhaps one of your PC drivers is outdated.

    Yep only present when playing S&box. I've already re-installed twice, verified the cache multple times, and updated video drivers plus Windows. EDIT: Fixed by reinstalling the game to another SSD.
