When I open the plutonium launcher/updater nothing happens

[JustCoopz]

it gives me the loading cursor then just stops, I've tried many obvious things such as deleting my antivirus and running in administrator mode. Any suggestions.

JustCoopz This issue can be caused by outdated GPU drivers so try updating your drivers first. Restart your PC then try launching Plutonium again, the issue should now be resolved. If this doesn't work, r_fullscreen 0 followed by vid_restart in the external game console window should do the trick.

If this still doesn't work try to run this redist installer. Once it installed everything restart your PC and try again.

My drivers were up to date and I've already tried everything from the antivirus page, but what is the external game console window?

Hit Win+R, type winver and screenshot the window.
