*Not necessarily a fix but more of a workaround until Nexon decides to fix this issue that's been an issue for almost 6 months.

If you are having the problem where you start the launcher, log in, and then nothing happens do these steps:
1. Launch the launcher and log in
2. Ctrl + Shift + Esc and click on the 'Details' tab if you're on Windows 8/10 or 'Processes' tab if you're on lower Windows version.
3. In the details/processes you should find 3 nexon_client.exe processes and 1 nexon_runtime.exe process. Right click and 'End Task' on each nexon_client.exe. After that there should only be the 1 process of nexon_runtime.exe DO NOT END THIS TASK.
4. In your taskbar in the lower right corner of your screen double click on the Nexon Launcher icon (you might need to expand the taskbar by clicking on the arrow) and it should now open up!

You will have to repeat these steps anytime you have to relaunch the launcher.
I hope this works for anyone who has this issue in the future. Hopefully Nexon will fix this eventually.
