I haven't tested it with many games yet, but with a few I've tried when launching the game, the "preparing to launch..." popup shows normally, but after closing it, the actual window doesn't open. The game remains in Task Manager as a background process rather than an app. Also, sometimes it allows me to start multiple versions of the same game. Any advice?

Hallo jammy.
Hier ist eine alternative Formulierung:
1) Öffnen Sie die Steam-Bibliothek.
2) Klicken Sie mit der rechten Maustaste auf das Spiel, bei dem Sie Probleme haben.
3) Wählen Sie „Eigenschaften“ aus.
4) Gehen Sie zu „Lokale Dateien“.
5) Klicken Sie auf „Integrität des Spiel-Caches überprüfen...“
falls dies nicht funktioniert, versuchen Sie, Steam neu zu installieren.

It looks like the issue might be related to the EVGA precision X, as all games are now launching correctly. Appreciate the assistance!

After roughly an hour of restarting my computer searching for the startup service linked to game loading problems, I've identified the likely cause.
1.press windows key+R to open Run program.
2.type 'msconfig' then enter.
3.select 'selective startup
4.go to services tab and check the box labeled 'hide all Microsoft services'
5.scroll to the 'NVIDIA cooperation' and uncheck the 'NVIDIA localsytem selector' box
6.click 'apply' and 'okay' then when prompted, click the restart button and that may solve your issue.
I hope this assists anyone needing help. If you find this useful, please share it with others who might benefit. Or don't worry, I'm not your mom. If this fix doesn't work, consider adjusting services one by one to pinpoint the right one. Everyone's approach may vary, and I wish you all a great gaming experience.
