Studio 2017 freezing on startup ('Initializing views').

Since a couple of days, Studio 2017 freezes on startup while in the 'initializing views' mode. The Windows Task Manager shows 0% processor use and a memory use that doesn't change (remains at around 56 MB).

Repairing the software via the Windows Control Panel always helps for just one startup. I also tried uninstalling Studio (and Multiterm) and reinstalling the software after a Windows reboot, but no luck.

It worked fine until a couple of days ago. I didn't install other software in the meanwhile or had other issues.

I'm using W10.

Any thoughts on how to troubleshoot this? Thanks!
