Stuck on Splash Screen

Stuck on splash screen, followed steps in FAQ.

1. Your client version is wrong

2. You're missing one of the prerequisite .NET runtimes - either .NET Framework 4.7.2 or .NET 6

3. Your antivirus is blocking one of the client .dll plugins

4. Your live game files have some residual old files that can't be used/ are corrupted

I reinstalled EFT live and SPT. Anti-virus is not blocking the applications as far as I can tell, but I did set an exclusion for the entire folder. SPT folder is on C: but not in same folder as EFT. Reinstalled both 4.7.2 framework and .NET 6. Server address matches what is in the launcher.

Started webserver at http://127.0.0.1:6969

Started websocket at ws://127.0.0.1:6969

Server is running Happy playing!!

I also went through several of the older threads with same issue and tried some of their fixes but I am still not able to get beyond the splash screen. At this point I think im overlooking something obvious.

I have followed the steps in the FAQ and still stuck on splash screen. I tried the auto install and the step by step guide, reinstalling EFT both times in between.

Marking as resolved. Deleted BSG appdata and started working.
