Hi guys, this is an odd issue I've been having for nearly a week now, and I can't seem to figure out why it is happening. So far the most I've managed to do is figure out part of the problem and temporary fixes.
So whenever I close GMS2 and open it again some time later, my game won't run. And it's not just my game, it's any game I try to build as an exe, build and run, debug, or clean. None of those functions work. So the issue isn't a coding one on my side, it does it to blank projects I've made that only have an object and a room, maybe a line of code here and there.
Every time I try to build as an exe, build and run, etc. it just says "SAVING PROJECT TO ..."
In addition it might be important to include the when I try to stop those processes with the Stop button, it just says "STOPPING..." but never really does.
My first fix was restarting my PC, which worked. At first I thought that fixed the issue since my game could run again, and then I closed GMS2 and opened it later. No success.
Also I uninstalled and reinstalled GMS2, which did not fix the issue.
Later I tried seeing if signing out of windows and signing back in again could have an effect, and it did. But it was the same result as when I restart my PC, so long as I don't close GMS2 it works.
I've cleared out the cache of GMS2 many times before I even considered restarting the PC, so that doesn't work. (I figured it'd be brought up as a suggestion)
All of this has been happening with 2.2.3.341 as well as 2.2.3.344
Honestly at this point I'm just lost on how to fix this. My theory is that there might be a leftover/rogue process not fully being terminated when I close GMS2, and that's affecting it when I open it again - but it's just a theory.
