My Skyrim will not launch what so ever, it gets to the small window which has the play button and where you can manage your mods. But after that nothing happens once I hit play. No Bethesda logo, sound, or anything.

It doesn't give me any error message either.

Things I have done to try to fix this

Verify cache multiple times (It says there is one file misssing everytime I do it and I don't see it update, I don't know if this is the problem but I don't know how to fix it)

Reinstalling the game multiple times (Deleted every single file including the ones located in documents)

Removed every single mod and un subscribed

Did optional windows updates

Cleaned windows cache

Ran Skyrim and Steam as admin

Defragged Skyrim files

Checked drivers for updates

Launched on low settings

Checked audio properties



I don't know what to do, I just want to play Skyrim at this point with or without mods
