game will not launch
Hi,
I've read through the FAQ's and countless other threads online with this issue. I've tried everything short of reinstalling my OS.
I just bought the game 2 days ago and it just won't launch. It claims to be running as a process in the task manager, but it isn't, and also will not close/end task.
When 'launched' there is no black screen or other screen at all. Nothing happens.
It does however create a log file every time it tries to launch. Here is the text below.

Hello, Randall!
Sorry to hear that you are experiencing this issue.
It seems the game can't find the config (.cfg) file. If possible, could you get the config file (file name: SpaceEngineers.cfg) from a friend who also plays Space Engineers? Or, you can try SE's new/fresh installation. To do so, uninstall the game from Steam. Delete every leftover in the Roaming/SE and Steam/SE folders. Reinstall the game and try to play.
If the issue persists, could you send us the game's log, and the log from the Windows Event Viewer when experiencing this issue?
To get the Windows Event Viewer log, please open the Event Viewer (from the start menu, type Event Viewer). In Event Viewer, go to Windows Logs, Application, and send the top “.NET Runtime” error from Application: SpaceEngineers.exe. (please see attached image).
To do this right, please follow these steps:
1) Select the correct file on the left side (Application)
2) Select first the .NET runtime error from the top (using default ordering)
3) Copy the large bottom text and send it to us.
Please Note: make sure that the info is from the Application: SpaceEngineers.exe
We are looking forward to assisting you with this issue.
