#Olympus won't load on Windows

After installing Olympus on my Windows PC, I'm not able to run the application. I can open the app, where I'll get a black screen in the window for 30 - 60 seconds, then the application will close itself.

I've tried installing from both Github and GameBanana. I've also tried restarting my PC, uninstalling and reinstalling Celeste and starting it up, and I've tried the manual installation at the bottom of the Everest webpage. I'm stumped because this issue isn't mentioned at all where I've looked for help.

For some users, Olympus freezes on a white or black screen on startup for unknown reasons. You can attempt the following fixes:
-If you have a third party antivirus, check if it's blocking/quarantining Olympus.
-Restart your PC.
-Delete and reinstall Olympus.
If none of those work, no fix for this is currently known and you have to use one of the following alternate installation methods:
-On Windows, the old graphical Everest installer is available at https://gamebanana.com/dl/430740.
-Mons (https://github.com/coloursofnoise/mons/) is a command line based cross-platform installer that is similarly powerful to Olympus. However, it requires some base familiarity with the command line.
-Alternatively, you can use the manual installation method described under "Cross-platform manual installation" at https://everestapi.github.io/.
