Hello,
I have seen a quite a few posts on this forum and other with people who can't start ETW because the game crashs on start up. Here is a guide to fix it.
From what I have read most people uninstall the game reinstall it a couple of times and then end up downloading 16GBs from Steam. For some people this is a real inconvenice because of slow internet or no internet.

Volia, your game should be working again.
I had this problem and steam redownloaded about 300MB of files. This should hopefully help someone.
Thanks are appresiated.
Regards,
