    try:

    Installed Latest updates for my OS
    Installed Latest drivers for my Video card
    Installed Visual C++ 2012 redistributable x86 and x64
    Tried replacing msvcr110.dll with the one in Planetary Annihilation\stable
    Ran the old launcher, which downloads the new launcher, which then crashes
    Ran Uberlauncher, which downloads the new launcher, which then crashes
    Deleted then entire game folder (but not my AppData) and tried to reinstall - but the launcher crashes.

    Do not do that and please do not spread this information if you don't understand how computers work. :(

    I'm having the same issue--and Microsoft is saying my .NET is the latest version.

    Could you explain why not please? Rather than just say "Don't do it?" If you're going to infer you know more about how computers work than I do, the least you could do is explain your statement rather than make derogatory comments.

    It's easy. Some players might copy x86 version of this DLL to SysWOW64 or 64-bit DLL into system32. Also PA launcher don't have real ability to remove files that wasn't tracked by update so it's might cause issues later.

    Can you try to move it outside of game directory and try to run PA.exe directly?
    E.g by default launcher I linked download game contents here:
    Code:
    C:/Users/%username%/AppData/.local/Uber Entertainment/Planetary Annihilation/
    Just copy directory of game to directory that not contain any non-English characters in path. For example C:/Games/
