(not a mod) Hey can you tell me the specs of your pc(task manager) @Akira Ctrl + Shift + Esc, then performance it might be vanguard too so try uninstalling vanguard, it should reinstall it automatically when you re-launch the game when ur on ur pc open the little arrow on the right side of the taskbar, click on the vanguard logo and then press uninstall

Download auto runs from the system internal suite https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/autoruns When you have it open press file, and then run as administrator Then uncheck anything that is red or yellow Except Vanguard and anything that fails to be unchecked Restart your computer and then try the game again
Autoruns - Sysinternals
See what programs are configured to startup automatically when your system boots and you login.
