New NCsoft launcher installer not starting.

Yesterday, I tried installing the new launcher and encountered some issues. Initially, it launched just fine. However, the progress bar stopped at 60%. After not moving for 15 minutes, I closed the program as I figured there was a problem. After doing this, my CoH shortcut no longer worked. It stated that the destination did not exist. I was able to use my old. shortcut from the folder. With this working, I figured that the botched install messed something up. To fix this, I uninstalled CoH and spend 4-5 hours redownloading the client. This did not fix the issue.

The issue is that when I click on the launcher installer, it pops up in my tray and immediately vanishes. This occurs right after the permission box pops up. There is no warning, no error, no launcher box. Does anyone know how to fix this? Are there remnants of the old install that I may need to eliminate?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
