Crash at Launch

As others have said, the game crashes immediately upon launch. I can sometimes see the Inflexion splash screen. I have been a player since Early Access launched, and have hundreds of hours in the game, but haven't played in a few months. I was excited to come back, but I've been completely unable to play. My graphics card is up date, other games with higher system requirements run fine. I'm quite frustrated.

      Fixed Mine! I posted this on another bug report, but I was able to fix mine by checking Windows Event Viewer and Applications. It showed Nightingale was having a fault with a particular .dll file. Here is the rest from my other comment:
      Specifically the one located at: "C:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\Nightingale\Engine\Plugins\Runtime\Nvidia\Streamline\Binaries\ThirdParty\Win64\sl.pcl.dll"

      So I deleted that file and re-launched the game, to my shock, I was able to get in-game. Not sure whether I should have validated files first, because presumably the game is working despite not having that specific file. Previously I had verified files, reinstalled, updated graphics drivers, rolled back drivers, restarted PC. I am glad to have a fix!

      Game was fine last night (Mar-25 PST) but won't connect to Epic Games Services today. Says failed, then CTD to a window that asks what you were doing and whether to send the report.
