tModLoader Crashing On Startup
When I try to launch tModLoader the console opens but closes a couple of seconds after. However, this issue is only happening with tModLoader, not Terraria, which works fine. I'm not sure why this is happening and have already tried a lot of different solutions, none of which worked: uninstalling both tModLoader & Terraria, deleting both entire folders, verifying the integrity of my files, redownloading Dotnet versions 6.0.100, 8.0.410, and 9.0.300, & deleting all workshop items (mods & resource packs). I checked the logs and it appears to be something to do with Dotnet, but I am unsure what.

Welcome to #support-forum. Before someone helps you, please first consult the information in #TML Troubleshooting Guide and try all the suggestions that might fit your particular issue, especially in the linked FAQ page.
If the information in the pinned thread does not solve your issue, please post all log files by dragging and dropping them into this chat. In Steam right click on
tModLoader in the library, then hover over Manage and click on Browse local files. In the folder that appears find tModLoader-Logs and open that folder. Inside that folder are the logs files. Select them all except the Old folder and drag them into this chat. If you need a visual guide to this process watch this: https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/assets/4522492/3f4efa43-753f-4733-b630-ba85e711340cvocational-lavenderOP•4mo ago
here are the logs
4th bullet here https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/wiki/Basic-tModLoader-Usage-FAQ#check-nativeslog says to delete the dotnet folder. Usually this error is caused by users mistakenly launching the game as admin somehow, maybe steam is being launched as admin and influencing it. Try deleting the dotnet folder then manually launching start-tModLoader.dll instead of launching from steam

Do you mean start-tModLoader.bat?
Nevermind I figured it out, thank you for your time!
it was running as administrator in properties of dotnet.exe ðŸ˜
