Nothing happens when I start FGU

[kyleeliason]

Just like the title says, today I tried to start up FGU and nothing happened. I was like, "did I double click correctly?" and tried it again. And nothing. I opened the task manager and several instances of FGU was open. I closed them all down, restarted the computer and I still have the same problem. I've tried opening it directly from the exe app and nothing happens. I see it open in task manager, but it shows no CPU movement.

It worked fine a few days ago. I'm running Windows 10 (64bit) and not through Steam. Any thoughts?

Check that your anti virus isn’t the problem. I’ve seen reports on Discord that Avast is suddenly averse to FG.

Yeah, I had to completely uninstall Malwarebytes and it started working again. Was there a recent FGU update that conflicts with standard antivirus software? I've been using Malwarebyes forever.

Edit: Forgot to say thanks Zacchaeus! Thank you!

No, not exactly. Updates change the file size and other factors used by anti-virus software to identify programs uniquely. So every time a program updates, the security program has to decide, is this jut an update to a trusted program, or did a virus just hide itself as a program? FG is too small of a program for the security companies to track, so their programs have to try and figure it out. Sometimes they get it wrong.
