Starfield Launch Issues

This is a general list of all random and obscure reasons why people couldn’t get Star Wars Genesis to run, in order of most common to least common

• User does not have Shattered Space installed.
• User is using an old version of Starfield and forgot to update it
• Starfield needs to be repaired through Steam
• User has a 3rd party anti-virus like BitDefender that’s blocking Mod Organizer from doing its job. Must be disabled or sometimes fully uninstalled.
• User installed an old version of Star Wars Genesis by accidently pointing Wabbajack to their old installer file (ex. Star Wars Genesis V6.wabbajack). Send a pic of your fullscreen Mod Organizer 2 page in the Help channel in my Discord and I can quickly check if this is the case
• User did not put StarfieldCustom.ini in the correct location or called it StarfieldCustom.ini.ini
• Starfield is actually running but is stuck minimized in taskbar (solution in FAQ)
• User has 2 different Starfield installs somehow. Please delete the one outside the default installation location.
• User has strict Windows Defender settings besides the default and needs to add an exception to Mod Organizer 2 (in FAQ)
• User ignored all instructions to clean their previously modded Starfield directory and has conflicting mods in there, causing the game to instantly crash
• User got around the pirated Starfield check in Wabbajack but is using a shitty torrent that masks the version as the current version of Starfield when it is actually missing core-files
