Why won’t CSGO launch?
Best answer

If CS:GO won't launch, it's usually a simple fix! First, try restarting your computer - the classic turn it off and on again. If that doesn't work, check for game file corruption by verifying the integrity of game files in Steam. Right-click CS:GO in your Steam library, go to Properties > Local Files > Verify integrity of game files. Sometimes, outdated drivers cause issues too, so make sure your graphics card drivers are up to date!

Just update your drivers! CS:GO is picky with outdated graphics drivers.

Might sound weird, but check your screen resolution. If your computer's resolution doesn’t match the game’s set resolution, it might fail to launch. Try changing your desktop resolution to match the game's or vice versa.

Another thing, make sure your antivirus isn’t blocking CS:GO. Some overzealous antivirus programs flag it by mistake. Add CS:GO to your antivirus exception list and see if it solves the problem.

Honestly, sometimes it's just a bug with Steam. Logging out of Steam and logging back in can work miracles for whatever reason.
