[BUG] League of Legends Launcher won't Open

I don't know where else to turn to.

I've tried for two days so far to get this damn thing to start. I've gone to every site I know of to try and get an answer.

No Matter what I try to do, the Launcher will not open. When I run my game, it flashes the words "League of Legends" on screen. Followed by another logo with a loading bar underneath it for a split-second. Then it dissapears, and will not show anything else. It stays open in my Task Manager, but nothing else. No launcher or anything.

I've already tried Deleting lol_launcher in C:/Riot Games/League of Legends/RADS/projects and running as administrator. No luck.

I can't find any other folders, namely lol_air_client, and lol_air_client_config_xxx as they will not show up.

I've even tried to launch it with my desktop at a lower resolution than my normal 1600x900, still nothing.

I do not know what else to do. Please help, and respond quickly.

Bump, and I will continue to bump until I get a response.

There should be a seperate launcher called lol.launcher.admin somewhere in there, use that instead, also use ctl+alt+del to open task manager and end task on all LOL client, pvp.net tasks before doing this

Any chance you use avast? A few days ago I saw some threads about avast blocking LoL.

Been having similar problems on my mac where I would login, then the client would crash after the main screen shows up for a second. I've posted twice about this and other people with macs as well PCs seem to be having similar problems. It's been prevalent since patch 6.2 and 6.3.
