I am trying to play the game but when i try and launch the launcher it will not launch it is just stuck in my task manager saying its running.
I have tried:
Uninstalling/reinstalling a few different ways.
Disabling firewall/anti-virus/security etc
Restarting computer
I am on windows 8.1 and not using on steam.
Thanks for help

If you are running 8.1 it wont work. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.
If you are on just version 8 of windows. It appears that the latest Nvidia drivers are also causing some issues.
Might be a build version issue then. According to TSW GM.
Dont spose you have msi afterburner on your system ( shot in the dark as I recall someone else having issues with that and win8 and TSW ) ..
Ok the latest beta drivers from Nvid are working fine ( obviously the win8 ones ). Some reported issues with varying DX versions 11 or 9 and framerates but nothing concrete.
Also net framework make sure it is updated as Win 8 is on 4.5.
Hopefully some of it may help![:) :)](https://forums.mmorpg.com/resources/emoji/smile.png)
Have you gone into the folder and tried clicking the various .exe files that launch the game?
TheSecretWorldDX11.exe, TheSecretWorld.exe, PatcherSetup.exe, ClientPatcher.exe, and even TheSecretWorld.mcl if you have windows media center installed?
