No, I don't use it so far

Btw. after I've reinstalled the drivers I also uninstalled and reinstalled the game

The file that is causing the problem appears to come from something called "Overwolf", which seems to be a game overlay. Try uninstalling that.

CBJ thank you! Indeed it was Overwulf. I' deleted it and suddenly the game starts again :)

Thanks for all the support to find the solution!!!

Thanks for getting back and confirming it works now!

I updated the crash redirect so other people experiencing this will get now redirected to a webpage where some information on this problem is shown.
