try to start "\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\Products\elite-dangerous-64\EliteDangerous64.exe"

and after the program closed, try "\steamapps\common\Elite Dangerous\EDLaunch.exe" .. it worked for me.

The Link in STEAM is still broken ...

I can launch ED via the drop down menu from the Steam launcher but my ED launcher shortcut on the taskbar zaps a message box up telling me the launcher needs updating with only an option to close the launcher.

My Steam had a very small ED update earlier today when I fired up the launcher, there's also no more updates on the list.

Same problem, can't run it at all. I think this may be FD so I'm holding off uninstalling for a while, just in case it's their end.

Use the games list on Steam and scroll down to 'Launch ED Horizons' in the drop down menu...works fine. It's not a Steam issue given the amount of posts from LEP non Steam users...

I had the same problem. I just now re-installed the new launcher software "EliteDangerous-Client-Installer.exe" (from my downloads folder) a second time. Didn't bother to remove the previous one, just overwrote it. I noticed that this time my old desktop shortcut of the launcher was removed and replaced by a new one, which hadn't happened the first time. Clicking on the Icon, I instantly got the "blue" launcher. Hurray!

Mine is now working too :)

I played a short session in the base game, it was interesting to see what I was allowed to do & what wasn't. I couldn't access the crew lounge (I don't have any crew) but I could access the passenger missions. My modules retained their engineering, and remote engineering wasn't greyed out.

Steam version still says the launcher needs an update. I've just created a shortcut of EDLaunch.exe on the taskbar as a workaround in the meantime.
