Steam GM:S Steam version won't run

Suddenly GM:S 1.4 won't launch for me. It used to work fine, but now if I try to launch it via steam, I get the "PLAY | MAKE" window, but after I click make, nothing happens. If I look in task manager, GM:S is running in the background but the window never shows up. Reinstalling or even rolling back to a previous version didn't help. I use GM almost every day so not much has changed since it previously worked. The only thing I can think of that might have been since that is my installing Quartus Prime + Modelsim, which I can't imagine has any effect on GM:S.

Anyone have any ideas?

TradeIDE.log shows nothing, the only thing it logs for every time I attempt to launch the program is "Stacktrace/Exception handling - Enabled":
