Make sure in the options of the launcher it is pointing to the bin folder of your Vanguard folder so it should look something like this.

D:\Vanguard\bin

If you will paste the launcher log also.

Can you past in the log from the launcher folder after you hit play and the launcher closes also try "Run as Administrator" cause so far everything look's correct.

Yup everything looks fine. There has to be something stopping the vgclient.exe from starting either a windows permission issue or something like windows defender or antivirus.
If you manually try and start the vgclient by clicking on the exe itself does it start?
