Hello, I got a new laptop (ThinkPad E16 Gen 2), and it is having a number of issues running Project Zomboid. I'll list all of them but currently the first issue I wish to address is that it cannot start without using the alternate launch mode. I've been troubleshooting this for days, and if anyone could help me out that would be much appreciated.

The reason this message is sort of short is because my laptop is restarting in 15 seconds
To give some more detail for anyone who needs it, here are the specs of my laptop.
The standard launch is identical to the alternate launch
The issue is that Steam likely failed to install the necessary files for the game.
