For the curious searcher in the future who also has this problem, this error is caused by a corrupt .Net installation. You'll need to uninstall and reinstall ".Net Framework 2.0".

Yeah, I figured since this wasn't a problem with the launcher I was just wasting people's time. However, there are some important details still not mentioned.

When uninstalling Microsoft.NET, you must uninstall every instance of it. I had 4, so you might have a few.

If you get a message that says you can't uninstall one of the instances because another program depends on it, uninstall the other instances first. This should fix the problem.
