    The tutorials provided are just a list of troubleshooting steps. Use only the steps which apply to you.

    Since none of the troubleshooting steps here worked, I'd suggest you do a Clean install.

    Hi Fritz,



    The above issue might occur due to incompatibility of the program with the update installed on the computer.

    • After the installation is complete, restart the computer and check if the changes are effective.


    Step 2: You can also follow the steps below and check if the issue is resolved.




    • Press Windows logo key on the keyboard and type
      Run programs made for previous versions of Windows.

    • Select the top most search result and follow from
      step 2
      from the article Make older programs compatible with this version of
      Windows
      (Also applies to Windows 10).

    • Check if the changes are effective.
