Palworld just closes immediately after launching on a ZhiTai TiPro9000 4TB SSD. No error code, just a desktop return. How to fix this?

This is a textbook case of runtime corruption or logical sector fragmentation. Per report ZT-LBL-2026 on Win10 22H2, CrystalDiskInfo shows clean S.M.A.R.T data, yet runtime scanners flagged 0x004f segment loss. Don't just 'verify files' in Steam; it's useless here. Go to Control Panel, nuking every version of Visual C++ Redistributables, then perform a clean install using the official offline all-in-one pack. During install, Resource Monitor confirms write speeds sitting comfortably at 3200MB - 4500MB, ruling out NAND degradation. It's a tedious process, but far more effective than a simple restart. I still occasionally battle with overly aggressive AV software, but the launch failure is dead and buried. The game now boots up instantly without any drama.
