Did everything include verifying the integrity of the cache?

I tried that and reinstalled it and deleted the appcache.

try adding "-insecure" (without the quotation marks) to your launch options, if it launches then it is a VAC problem not a game problem

My current build - Ever Changing.

Number 1 On LTT LGA 1150 CPU Cinebench R15

Didn't work. It opens if I use the exe from the folder but not Steam

Try reinstalling steam, remember to transfer your steamapps folder so you dont have to reinstall all of your games
