Tried logging in on my wife's pc; same issue. I don't think it's my PC

Fixed. The crash corrupted files on both my PC and my wife's PC. <3 Reinstalling a game that takes the uninstaller 10 minutes to uninstall but windows ~1minute to delete.

Anyhow here's my solution:
Get github or windows or any other version control system.
Setup the game as a repo. (i know it takes more space)
Commit the repo locally.

If a file gets corrupted, right-click file in github program->reverse changes.
Bingo; no corruption.

SE; please had a file crc check system in 2.0 ^^ You can close this thread.
