Research direction

Start by reproducing the launch failure after reinstalling Windows and inspect how the executable reports startup problems. Done means identifying why no window or taskbar icon appears and documenting or fixing a reproducible startup failure; the issue names no files or tests to inspect.

Description

I've been a happy user of this program for a while, but recently had to reinstall windows. As I tried using it again, nothing would happen when launching the exe (no icon would appear in my taskbar). How can I figure out what's wrong? Currently I'm getting no feedback at all, just nothing happens.
