Dreamweaver 21.1 Crashing on Startup on Windows

Dreamweaver 21.1 is crashing on startup on Windows 10. I've tried doing the Windows+Ctrl+Shif execution for Dreamweaver.exe to reset preferences as mentioned in Unusual behavior in Dreamweaver? Try restoring preferences. (adobe.com) but that crashes, too.

 

What else do I need to do?

    That sounds serious.

    Yes, I have all current Windows updates. This is not a new install or a new laptop. Dreamweaver was working earlier today. I shut it down normally. When I tried to start it again, it keeps crashing.

     

    I did reinstall it using the Creative Cloud Cleaner Tool. It still is crashing.
