Where is the shortcut to?

Try creating a new one from the mx.exe that you're using to launch.

Have you done anything to the original mx.exe file? The default on Windows is hidden file extensions, so if you named a file "mx.exe" it might actually be "mx.exe.exe". Try just "mx".

It's the hidden mx file that troubled. I have not done anything to the file, after playing yesterday i tried starting it again and nothing happened. After clicking it showed a loading icon and a slight transparent look to the launcher, i checked the processes in the taskmanager and it did not show any sign of mxs even wanting to start
