QViewer no longer starting

QViewer
#1

Hello,
Qviewer will not start anymore, when I double click, the computer seems to be busy for about a second but the application won’t start, there is no error message, nothing shows up in task manager. Does anyone know how to fix this? I have tried to uninstall and install the latest version, it made no difference.
