Are you using FSO 3.8.0? Are you using wxLauncher 0.12-rc.2 (https://github.com/scp-fs2open/wxlauncher/releases/)? Please post your fs2_open.log file.  Instructions on how to do this can be found in this post.

i used diaspora installer which is fs2_open_diasporar1

cannot get the log file -advanced options states "the executable did not generate a flag file."

using wxlauncher

also this occurred after i installed fs2open on my staem installation -= i installed diaspora first then installed fs2

but it was in a completely separate folder

Can you screenshot & post your wxLauncher tab where you selected the FSO exec?

If the it says "the executable did not generate a flag file" then generally the FSO exec can't run for whatever reason. IIRC certain anti virus programs have been known to do this. Or potentially you've selected the wrong build to run (? probably unlikely, but may as well check everything)
