Make sure that the all the game files are there using the validate files feature in most game store/launchers. I had issues with just csgo launching a little bit ago that this fixed. It might not work but worth a shot.

I have an ASUS rog strix scar 2 laptop i7-8750H and a GTX 1070. 

I changed the thermal paste of my laptop recently but now as soon as I launch any game gpu doesnt respond to it and stays idle.

I opened it up again and I couldnt see any missing screw.
I have reinstalled the drivers, its not working.
Any suggestions

Have you tried disabling your integrated graphics? This forces everything to run on the dedicated gpu. Could be a switching issue.
