I've looked all over but haven't found anyone even mention a similar problem to this, but it's really ruining my gameplay and I need some help.

The political map mode in EU4 works fine, to an extent. But when I try to change map modes to, say, trade or diplomatic, the colours of the provinces don't change at all. If I change to the religious map mode you can see the words "CATHOLIC" and "PROTESTANT" but still no colour change. Not only is this a problem, obviously, but when a province is taken in a war I can see the border change but the colour of the province remains the same. It's seriously frustrating because I can't tell what's what.

The only short-term fix I found was to alt-tab out and then back in and it refreshes, but naturally this isn't practical. Can anyone help me? Here's a few photos of what I'm talking about.

Are you using any sort of mods? If not I think you might need to 'verify integrity of game cache' in steam or even just deleting and re-installing the entire game.

I've already tried reinstalling and verifying the game twice now, but to no avail sadly :(

I do have a few map modes but I've tried running EU4 with them disabled and nothing's changed. Do I have to fully unsubscribe from them? Because I haven't done that!

Hmm this definitely seems to be a tech support issue. Do try the appropriate forum, but in the meantime try deleting ..\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV\gfx folder and also unsubscribe from those mods and then delete the ..\Documents\Paradox Interactive\Europa Universalis IV\mod folder.
If that fails please do post in the tech support sub-forums.
