Thank you for everyone's help! Nothing was working so last week I wiped the os and reloaded from scratch. This resolved whatever was going on.

Thanks for the info. I am trying to work through all your suggestions. So far no luck but still trying things.

Thanks for the DxDiag, and I'm sorry that neither of the system utilities had any impact. I'm concerned that the last section of the report shows PDR crashes along with many crashes of Dell.D3.WinSvc.exe along with two LiveKernelEvents.
This page is basically an ad for an uninstaller app, but it lists some details on the Dell app. You can try uninstalling it and reinstalling it from the Dell/Alienware webpage, although the official updates seem to be limited to Win7, 8 & 8.1.
The LiveKernelEvents might be caused by a problem with the video driver. One thing you can do is to uninstall the 441.87 nVidia driver completely, and then reboot. Run the installer again, and do a custom installation without the GEForce Experience, and uncheck everything except for the video driver itself. You'd probably want to reboot even if you're not prompted to. See if that allows PD to fully start.
If you're a gamer and need other options, run the nVidia installer again and try adding one component at a time while confirming that PD still works.

Thanks for the reply. Tried opening the blank project and same issue. I had already ran sfc but good call on running dism, had not thought of running that. Turns out it didn't improve my situation. Still having same issue. I attached the dxdiag.

A while ago, all of a sudden my PD stopped allowing me to open it. I have uninstalled/reinstalled many times with different setups (firewall/av off, as admin, blah blah). I did try booting up in safe mode and the software launches. This means I have a conflict somewhere in my hardware/drivers/something that loads normally. Since there are really no logs and support has not been very useful I thought I would see if anyone one here had an idea to try.

I am having a similar problem. App launches but then stops responding immediatly. Tried everything from support so far and no resolution. I did try something this morning. Booted into safe mode and the app loaded successfully so there is something in confict when I boot normally. Figuring this out without any logs will be much more difficult.
