Describe the Bug

It run the first time few days ago and I could update ShadPS4 without issues. But now it refuses to launch.
The thing is, first time I copied the application to the pre-qtlauncher update Shadps4 folder and despite overwriting the files, both Qtlauncher and emulator worked fine. Both the 0.12 version and the version Qtlauncher downloaded. Now I get for both launcher and emulator this message

Tried placing Qtlauncher on its separate folder and also extracted Shadps4 and overwrote Qtlauncher files.
Now Shadps4 12 launches fine.

But Qtlauncher in its own folder does not launch. Window appears for half a second and disappears.

Even deleted the Roaming config folder, no difference
folders are arranged like this:

Tried also the most recent action commit (1330) and now window does not appear at all

Reproduction Steps

Launching the app in its separate folder. If I place it in Shadps4 folder, I get the procedure entry point error message
