Destiny 2 not able to start

Hi everyone, I redownloaded Destiny 2 today using Steam, and when the download was done, I wanted to start it up again. However, I noticed that it wasn't starting due to the error in the screenshot. I've checked the Steam discussion forums, and read similar issues with BattleEye. - I've tried to uninstall and re-install BattlEye using the files within Destiny 2/battleeye/Uninstall_BattlEye.exe and Install_BattlEye.bat. Tried again still not working. - Tried to run as administrator, which also didn't work. - Tried turning off Windows Firewall settings and retrying it, which also didn't work. - And lastly, completely removed it again, removed the battleye folder, and "verified" game files via Steam again. All with no luck. If someone ran in this and fixed it what should be my next steps without pulling my hair out.
