Issue with Launcher

[Pyram Linum]

I purchased the Direct Download of Kerbal Space Program in 2013, and played it here and there for a while until sometime in 2016, when I got tired of trying to figure it out at the time (I wasn't particularly good at it back then). A couple of weeks ago, I got back into it and began playing it again. It's been all fine and good, but there's one slight issue.

For some reason, the launcher's background, which I would assume has an image behind all of its information, is blank, and looks a bit out of place. Furthermore, the place where the versions are supposed to be shown are blank (It says Current Version ID: -  and Latest Version ID: - ), and I can't use the update button as a result. I managed to update the game manually from 1.2.2 to 1.4.5 or whatever it is now, but the launcher did not change during my update process. Other than these issues, the launcher itself seems fully functional, but whenever I launch the game it asks me if I want to allow the program to make changes to the computer, as if its some installation program rather than a game.

None of these issues directly affect the gameplay, but they are concerning me a bit. Is there anything I can do to fix this?
Thanks.

Welcome to the forums!

The launcher was "discontinued" awhile ago afaik, it's fairly non-functional now; just ignore it.

The permission request is due to your security settings. You could make a shortcut to KSP.exe and set it to administrator authority, should stop the prompt I think? Anyways, nothing to be concerned about, just your computer being over zealous.
