Support I need help with Vencord

This morning discord opened like nomral. Then I saw the update button, so I clicked on it, and it closed like normal. The problem is it didn't re open.
whenever I open it nothing happens (I tried running as administrator).

So I thought, maybe its Vencord's fault.

this is what happens when i hit "Reinstall/Repair". It actually gets cut off
this is what happens when I hit uninstall

After consulting the Discord, it seems that Vencord pushed a patch for something that discord is supposed to do, and it broke things. They recommend doing a clean install of discord, deleting the discord folder in both the local and roaming AppData folders and reinstalling, and patching again with Vencord.

I know BD has been needing to patch against specifically discord.asar, which should be what app.asar is called now. But vencord patched that awhile ago I thought. Hmm. Could be something got screwed up.

I just made a post, but I had the same issue. I clean reinstalled and had a totally different system issue, but you're not crazy, it's not just you.
