I have 10 divisions going on 5 different operations, I have naval supremacy and the planning is finished. my troops are well supplied and waiting at the launch port. They wont go theres a highlighted arrow that says "click to activate execution of the plan" but it literally just doesnt do anything (yes I ctrl. clicked it, right click, double backflip click). Its so frustrating that the game doesnt tell you anything about why nothing works the way it does on youtube.

I have 10 divisions going on 5 different operations... waiting at the launch port.
I'm not sure what you mean here. 10 divisions, 2 each on five different invasion plans from the same general? 5 Different generals? 5 different sets of orders ("operations") for those 10 divisions -- which could explain why they don't launch; invading divisions can't have other orders.

You can have more than one invasion planned from a given port at the same time if the plans use different divisions. One general can have several invasion plans at once. (You can launch them all at once with the green arrow, or get fancier with the UI to launch individual invasions from his total plan.) But a single division can't have two different invasions at once, and a large group won't automatically divide itself among invasion plans from its port.

What problems do the tooltips show when you hover over the "go" arrow for the plan?

If you read the text on each invasion arrow, does it show the right number of divisions assigned? Ctrl-click on the arrow to select the divisions assigned to that invasion. Are those assignments as you'd expect? You can clear existing orders from divisions with the 'H'old command.

Do you have enough amphibious tech to support all the invasion plans you have ?
There are limits to how many divisions you can sealift at once.

Do you have naval supremacy in every sea region along the route from port to beach?
Slow transports won't go through hostile sea regions.

10 divisions, 5 assaults, 2 separate divisions per assault. One general has control of all 10 divisions and only those divisions.
So each division only has one order.
What I see when I hover over the green arrow is an indication that everything is good. I had previously had no sea supremacy but I fixed that and now it doesn’t offer any indication that I cannot launch the assault.
When I ctrl click the assault arrow, it shows all 5 operations and all 10 divisions associated it all looks ok to me I’m at a loss.
Thank you for the suggestions.

Or, for bonus points, did you happen to mark one of the sea-zones as "Forbidden" to all your own fleets? Asking for a friend...
I don’t know how to do that hahaha. But I did see the “no naval supremacy” indicator when attempting to launch. After I remedied this (only one ocean zone from start to finish) the indicator went away and it seems like everything is ok but still won’t let me launch. Thank you for the suggestion!

This is honestly probably it. Do you have to manufacture landing craft? For some reason I didn’t think of this. Wouldn’t the UI tell you if you were missing materials for the operation instead of saying “launch operation”?
Thank you!

No, but you do need to research some technology in the Naval Tech tree - it's quite far down on the page. First level allows 10 divisions doing naval invasion at once, so if you have any, you're good.

You do need convoys, though, so do check you have extras of those.
