It won't open at all. I get the screen that is black where you can type in prompts and commands. The actual VLC Media screen does not open. I have installed and uninstalled a number of times and the same thing keeps happening. Hope this makes sense.

This is the same issue that is happening to me, but there is NO VLC folder in %appdata% to delete to reset the preferences

Anyone out there know what to do about this? We can't get to preferences to change anything.

Thanks
