Do you mean that I need to make a folder with the DXDIAX programm, copy the Stellaris documents and add them to that folder, after that import them to here?

Well I don't know if this is what you mean, but here it:
drive.google.com
I couldn't import it straight from my computer.
If I'd do that it would give me error messages.
I uploaded it to Google Drive instead, that worked and it's all here for you to see.

I mean I want to see the dxdiag.txt you create on the problem machine, AND quite separately I want to see the three Stellaris log/txt files I mentioned. You attach them here with the "Attach Files" button below-left. Thanks.
I don't know what you mean by the Stellaris bug folder, sorry. I'm asking to see one file that you need to create with dxdiag.exe called dxdiag.txt , the two settings text files in the Documents/paradox/stellaris/ folder, and system.log from the Documents/paradox/stellaris/logs/ folder.
I understand that, but in that folder IS a Dxdiag.txt file and I believe the folders from Stellaris you’re asking for. I made the folder to compile all the files you asked for as far as I know.

Okay, great. Can I see those files please? You use the Attach Files button below-left here to supply them here.
Yes you can.
Here is what I belive you're asking for.

The Stellaris Bug Folder is a folder that I created that contains: the DxDiag.txt file, the folder that contains all of the logs and a folder that contains pdx_settings.zip and settings.zip.
I hope this is useful to you and you're able to identify the problem. In a previous message I posted a link to a Google Drive folder, that’s the same folder, so it doesn’t matter which one you click.

Unexpectedly I see nothing of concern to do with the game in those files. I was expecting an old or unsupported video, or weird settings, but there's nothing.
Tell us about the origin of this problem - I assume it has not been happening ever since you've had the game? What change or update seemed to trigger it?
What I can see in there are some LiveKernelEvents, which mean the machine was forcibly reboots or powered down. Did they relate to this issue or game at all, or something else?
We can try this: In your Steam Library right-click on this game and choose Properties. Click on Set Launch Options, and paste this in there:
-opengl
Does the problem still occur then?

No, you’re right it didn’t happen since I got the game, but from a certain day onward. I must mention that Geforce experience was also not functioning correctly, but after I deleted it, the problem was not solved.
Yes, I remember forcing my computer to power down, because I tried to record the problem via Geforce’s record option, but after I clicked it, my screen froze. My computer straight up crashed.
I’ve no idea what triggered it. It wasn’t before. Depending on when the 2.7.2 patch came out, it could be that.
I’ll definitely try those alternative launch options.

I tried it twice.
First with my current game then with a pre-generated game.
Sadly it didn't work eventhough I did exactly what you said:
rightclicked Stellaris in Steam, went to properties, clicked on alternative launching options, then copied opengl en pasted it there in the designated box and clicked ok.
Sadly it changed nothing.

Okay let's work on the nVidia angle:
- uninstall the existing nVidia driver, and all associated apps like geforce experience
- reboot
- install it again by fresh download from here:
- reboot again
If that doesn't help, I fear you have a hardware fault.

have you tried the old reliable solution of uninstalling and reinstalling the game? it may sound absurd but if there's an issue with the game that will solve it.

yes but by the sound of things the game isn't salvageable anyway. if you wish to keep it you can create a copy of the save file

Saved games are stored in Documents/paradox/stellaris/save games/ . You can simply move them elsewhere first.
Here's my process:
- "uninstall" in Steam-Stellaris
- manually delete both the Steam/SteamApps/common/Stellaris AND Documents/Paradox/Stellaris folders
- re-install game in Steam, run a Steam Verify when done.
- add stellaris.exe to the exceptions list of your antivirus app; ESPECIALLY if you have Windows Defender, add it to the Ransomware "Apps Allowed Through" list.
- start the game with no mods active and test
In particular you need to make sure there are no files or folders left under either the Steam Stellaris or Documents Stellaris locations, before installing again.
As you might notice, I have never done this before. So, just to be sure if I uninstall the game, I can just reinstall. And I moved my save game somewhere else it should be fine? Of coarse after doing this I’d first test the waters with a new game and only then I would try my old save, hoping that it would still work.
Yes, thank you. I might do that, sadly you may be right and my game isn’t salvageable.
But I’ve invested a lot of time in this one and I’m not willing to let this one go.
I’m at that point that the Great Khan crisis has already but there’s still some time before the endgame crisis.
