The game will only launch when the resolution is set to 3840x2160. This is also the default setting of my screen, but the displays in the game are very small as a result. That's why I've always played with a resolution of 1920x1080 but when I select that it just loads forever but doesn't happen. If I then press anything the game crashes before I get to the loading screen.

You can adjust the UI scaling in the game's video options menu. Usually a factor between 1.2 and 1.5 is right for most people.
That said, I don't understand why you couldn't change to any other supported resolution. DXDIAG is a program you run from a command prompt or the Windows start menu 'run' dialog box (or 'search programs' in Windows 7 or later). After running it will open a window and start collecting info with a progress bar in the lower-left corner. When it completes click the 'save all information' button and save it to a file then attach that file here.
Please attach your Documents/Paradox/Stellaris/settings.txt and pdx_settings.txt .
From your Documents/Paradox/Stellaris/logs/ folder, attach system.log
You should be able to use any of the resolutions listed at the end of that system.log file.
You are in windowed mode i see - is it any different in borderless or fullScreen?

No, fullScreen is the same problem and in borderless it's just possible to use the screen resolution.
Okay, so in fullScreen you can only use 3840x2160., is that right? Is this because other resolutions do not show in the launcher? Or they show but don.t stick in some way?
If you do use that resolution, and up the GUI scaling to say 1.2 , is that more usable for you?
You should go into properties-compatibility in stellaris.exe and tick the Disable fullScreen Optimizations box, that might help. I hope so!

So in fullscreen mode I can set other resolutions, but then the game doesn't start.
In borderless fullscreen I can only select 3840x2160 (other resolutions aren't displayed), but with GUI 2.0 it works very well.
In windowed mode it's exactly the same as fullscreen.
So other resolutions are displayed (fullscreen, windowed), but when I select them the game doesn't start.

The "disable fullscreen optimizations" -tick helped. Now everything is fine. Thank you very much!!!!
