HoI4 Crashing on start

[tom17121]

I've been play HoI4 for a bit now but last night and this morning (even after the update) the game crashes when I try to start it. I get to the startup thing where you pick the mods/DLC you want to use/not use and start up the game from but whenever I hit play the game crashes. I use no mods. I tried uninstalling the game and installing it but that didn't work. I really want to keep playing but I can't since it crashes everything. Help?

P.S. It wont let me view the tech support page for this game so that's why I posted it here

The reason you can't view the tech support page is that you haven't registered your game. Paradox games have absolutely no DRM in them and hence to avoid giving support to pirates they require you to spend 2 minutes registering your game.
The way you do it is to go to this part of your profile page and connect your account with steam.

You might need to sync your account with steam for the registrations to be done correctly. Sync is done either by logging out and back in or pressing sync on this page.
