Trouble of starting Studio 2024 after upgrading it from Studio 2021

Hello, Please advice what I need to do to solve the issue and achieve my goal.

GOAL:
I want to use "OpenAI Provider" on the upgraded Studio 2024 (18.0.2.3255)

ISSUE:
I'm having trouble starting Studio 2024 Professional after upgrading it from Studio 2021.

COTEXT:
I have successfully upgraded from Trados Studio 2021 Professional (Network) to Trados Studio 2024 Professional.  
I have deactivated the license for Studio 2021 before the upgrade, and uninstalled Studio 2021 after the upgrade.  
Having encountered the issue, I uninstalled and reinstalled Studio 2024, but the issue remains.  

(1) Studio 2024 has successfully been installed.

Windows Start Menu:
Windows Start Menu showing Trados Studio 2024 highlighted with a red box.

(2) The license has successfully been activated.

License details for Trados Studio 2024 Professional showing 1 user, 1 in use, 0 available, and activation date of 24-06-2025.

(3) Studio starts but disappears immediately after this screen.

 Trados Studio 2024 splash screen with version 18.0.2.3255 and Japanese text reading 'Application module is loading...'.

Thanks,
Chiaki Yamaoka
