Can´t enter my old world

So, I bought this game a few months back and loved it. I took a break that lasted a few weeks and when I came back I couldn´t enter my world. It happened before the big update so I don´t think that´s the problem. I tried making a new character and even verifying my game files and so far nothing seems to work.
Basically everytime I try to enter the game loads for a second, freezes and if I press anything the game crashes.

What do I do?

You, good sir, are a genius!
IT WORKED!

I had this same issue. I uninstalled the game. Then went to the folder location in steamapps/common and deleted the Valheim folder completely. I then did a fresh download and install of the game, and it loaded up perfect. I did this post Hearth and Home update.
