For some reason since the beginning of the day my TF2 isn't launching, it was working yesterday.
I tried to:

Restart computer
remove custom and cfg files
Verify game cache
Reinstall TF2

Don't know if this will help you but randomly one day my TF2 wouldn't launch if I had Mumble open first. I now have to close mumble > Launch TF2 > Launch Mumble. Otherwise my TF2 won't launch. Show's on Steam that I'm playing TF2 for like 5 seconds and then just goes back to online without any messages or anything :P

This happened to me recently to SFV on Steam. Fixed it by making it so that my antivirus wouldn't "check" my SteamApps folder. As soon as I did that, it got fixed. Not sure if it works for TF2 tho, not even sure if it would work for other people.
