Launch problem

[Ner-Kun]

The process appears for a few seconds in the task manager and then disappears without any error.

I try this:

Restart PC
Administrator Mode
Compatibility mode (Win8 Win7 etc...)
Put unzipped files to C:\RimTrans(files) (System Drive); D:\RimTrans(files)
Install .NET framework 4.6.1 (Microsoft says that a newer version is already installed)

It looks like I'm not the only one with such a mistake...

You should check the file named "Settings.xaml".
It is probably here;

C:\Users\(username)\AppData\Roaming\RimTrans

According to this article, if the contents of that file are not generated fine, it may be possible to solve the launching problem by writing the appropriate settings.
Try entering the following into that file;

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ResourceDictionary xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:s="clr-namespace:System;assembly=mscorlib" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml">
  <s:Double x:Key="AddModWindowHeight">600</s:Double>
  <s:String x:Key="RimWorldInstallDir">C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld</s:String>
  <s:Double x:Key="OptionsWindowHeight">600</s:Double>
  <s:Double x:Key="MainWindowWidth">1080</s:Double>
  <s:Double x:Key="OptionsWindowWidth">971</s:Double>
  <WindowState x:Key="MainWindowState">Normal</WindowState>
  <s:String x:Key="WorkshopModsDir">C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100</s:String>
  <s:Double x:Key="AddModWindowWidth">971</s:Double>
  <s:Double x:Key="MainWindowHeight">667</s:Double>
  <s:Boolean x:Key="Selected_Japanese">True</s:Boolean>
</ResourceDictionary>

But you may have to change some parts of the code above if necessary.

• Select your language.

• <s:Boolean x:Key="Selected_Japanese">
  -- The supported languages are English, Chinese Simplified, Chinese Traditional, Czech, French, Japanese, Russian, Spanish (Latin America), and Korean.

• Reconfigure the directory section according to your environment.

• <s:String x:Key="RimWorldInstallDir">C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld</s:String>
  -- where your rimworld is

• <s:String x:Key="WorkshopModsDir">C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\294100</s:String>
  -- where your mods are

I hope this solves the problem with the startup...

After the actions described by the author above, if RimTrans.exe all tot does not open, just change the extension from xml to xaml in the already edited "settings" file.
Maybe it will be useful to someone.
