While trying to resolve issues with my game, I attempted to open it but instead Razer Cortex launched. Since it was causing severe lag in Geometry Dash, I wanted to close it and launch the game again. However, after closing Razer Cortex, my Steam behaved abnormally and kept closing when I tried to launch the game. I tried various solutions, including reinstalling Cortex, but nothing worked. My PC is also new, so I am unsure why this is happening.
