[1.1.9.5] Cannot launch host or join multiplayer game dialog

When I click the second button [the single player/join multiplayer/host multiplayer button], if I choose either “Join Multiplayer” or “Host Multiplayer”, then regardless of what options i select clicking “Accept” results in no subsequent window, nor error (i.e. it’s not that the server list window is empty when selecting “joint Multiplayer”: the server list window never appears in the first place). This same behavior occurs if I have “LAN” or “Internet” selected, and seeming regardless of any options within the “Host Multiplayer” popup.

This behavior appeared to appear after I reenabled the ashes of malmouth and forgotten gods DLCs in steam->properties so I could play with a different person, though it’s been likely 18 months since I’d player it, so environmental changes are also possible.

I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling Grim Dawn, running the repair tools, disabling UPnP and enabling explicit port forwarding, disabling all firewalls and all AV, and launching 32 and 64 bit versions. , as well as searching for other people who reported the same issue. The options → network → test button consistently reports success (when UPnP is enabled).

I’m at a bit of a loss at this point: single player mode works fine, and multiplayer… used to work; I’d appreciate any help or insight you may have.
