Steam Runtime Communication Error

[Torres2131]

Hello,

Sadly after updating to 1.4 I'm now unable to play the game. I'v attempted to uninstall, re-verify, and delete all files on my computer connecting to Imperator Rome. Each time I launch the game from steam I get an error message with the following.

Steam Runtime Communication Error: We had trouble communicating with steam. Verify that steam is running, doesnt have admin priv and try opening the game directly through steam... if the issue continues reach out to support.

Look forward to getting this resolved and trying out 1.4

Please try this:

- exit the Steam app entirely
- uninstall Paradox Launcher v2 from the Windows "Apps and features" utility, if still present.

Delete the following folders if still present:

- C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Programs/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/
- C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Roaming/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
To see the AppData folder you'll need to enable View Hidden Items in File Explorer.

- run steam.exe as the Windows Admin user

- run the game from the PLAY button in Steam

IF that doesn't help, in this folder are some .log files:
C:/users/<UserName>/AppData/Local/Paradox Interactive/launcher-v2/
Please attach them here.
