Il-2 sturmovik not responding (steam) *FIXED*

[oFlyingDutchman]

Edit: Fix at the bottom
I was playing normally in the morning, went to play a few hours later and it won't launch anymore.
Things i've tried:
-Reinstail the game
-Clear boot
-Delete every single file that was downloaded into the game, such as mods and skins
-Updated windows 
-Updated graphic drivers
-Validade files through steam
-Tried launching directly from the folder from il.exe as admin
-Tried launching the launcher, which gives me an error that i'll print just after this post
-Checked if i had any "nahimic" software running, which i don't
-Closed every instance of nvdia software i had running
-Changed the instal folder from E:\ to C:\ 

Send help, please

The program Il-2.exe version 1.0.0.1 stopped interacting with Windows and was closed. To see if more information about the problem is available, check the problem history in the Security and Maintenance control panel.

After being stuck on playing raid shadow legends for a day, god have mercy on my soul, i finally managed to fix my problem
What i did:
Uninstaled the game from steam, went to E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\IL-2 Sturmovik Battle of Stalingrad, which is where my game was instaled and deleted every single folder ar archive that was still there, and instaled again. The game now opens normally. So, if you are having the same issue, see if this helps.

Also, for the love of god, don't forget to backup the input folder, since your keymap is saved in there

ok, thanks, i wonder what the underlying problem is, i have the same log as you too.

just trying not to uninstall :), its a last resort, there must be a file or something gone wrong, surprised no one else mentions this.

thanks for your help though
