I encountered an issue where my load times were becoming incredibly long so I decided to delete CoC and reinstall it. I followed the instructions of reinstalling perfectly but now when I launch the shortcut exe, the tiny window with the game icon shows up, then a bunch of black screens, then the game minimizes and will not open. I can get the main menu to pop up momentarily if I spam click though it instantly minimizes shortly after. The only way to close it is to end the task through my task manager. I do not understand what is going on whatsoever, the game ran perfectly fine up until today. I would appreciate some advice. I am running the game in admin mode and not in compatibility mode. I am on Windows 10.

Thanks in advance

Create shortcut to the exe file. Right click on it->Compatibility->Check "use 640x480 resolution". Game should start normally, then you change resolution to desirable
