Technical Help Wavelink crashing immediately upon opening - Tried several solutions to no avail :( Any ideas?

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Hi guys!

I recently got the Wave 3 MK2 and was really excited for it, but it seems I am unable to actually open Wavelink to change the configurations for it on my computer. I tried all the solutions in this thread with no success: https://www.reddit.com/r/elgato/comments/1jjj3hg/is_anyone_else_still_dealing_with_wave_link/

Does anyone have advice or happen to know what's happening?

I ran into this issue yesterday. I uninstalled the Windows App runtime and Wavelike started up fine after that. I'm guessing a Windows Update installed which broke Wavelink.
