    Fantasy grounds does not open.

    it just sits in the background running and does nothing, i installed it like 20 times in the last 8 hours trying to salve this issue.
    i install it, i run it and the updater comes up and i update it. then i run it a second time and it does a large update like 5 to 10 min long. then runs in the back ground.
    and everytime after this when i start the app it does nothing. FYI i tried it both on steam and on windows 10. steam had an issue where it would not stop running and it was just messed up. on windows it just runs in the background but at least i can shut it down with task manager.
    please help me, it seems this has lots of bugs.

    A few people, me included see FG taking a long time to start - a few minutes to get to the initial splash screen. This has been possibly linked to other apps running at the time on the computer.

    I recommend you try this:
    1) Completely reboot your computer.
    2) Don't start anything else (not even a browser).
    3) Immediately after logging in, start Fantasy Grounds.
    4) Give it a few minutes. Monitor the FantasyGrounds.exe process in Windows task manager - is there any CPI activity? Is the memory slowly increasing?

    Delete FantasyGrounds.exe from the Program Files (x86)\Fantasy Grounds directory then download the Web installer from the Home page and run that.
