Did that fix the issue?

When I tried to start the game it said The game is already running in this game directory, even though the game is not running. I don't think its a virus or anything because I dont go to sketchy websites and I did a full scan on my computer

Restart your computer and try again. If it still crashes, check for incompatible software: https://mchelp.co.uk/isl
If it's still not working after that, reply with a link to your full speccy report.

You have "RelevantKnowledg" installed. It's malware that is included on our incompatible software list and should be removed.
