Try going to the C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid folder and edit the options.ini file with a text editor.
In that file, edit the fullscreen=true line to fullscreen=false
Then try launching the game again.

do you know any other ways

sage vine
#

Can you share your console.txt file found in C:\Users\YourUserName\Zomboid?

tame spindle
#

there

sage vine
#

The logs show that the game loads perfectly fine, meaning something on your PC must be blocking its display

#

Do you have multiple monitors perhaps? Or do you have any sort of graphical background applications?

#

Such as GPU Tweak, MSI Afterburner, anything that adds overlays

sage vine
#

And the rest of the things?

tame spindle
#

i think i might have a gpu tweak but im not certain

sage vine
#

I would recommend checking in that case, because it would be the cause of the issue most likely

tame spindle
#

i dont think i have a gpu tweak

#

i know i dont have msi afterburner either

tame spindle
#

ok im pretty sure my gpu is tweaked

#

thats probably why

tame spindle
#

so what do i do

sage vine
#

Well, whichever software you used to tweak it, just roll back the tweaks

tame spindle
#

#
