InDesign 2023 crush after open

[SnowyCanada]

I have Adobe InDesign 2023, version 18.1, installed on Windows 11 system computer. Today when I start InDesign, it goes to loading screen and then disappears.

After check Windows Event Viewer, I find below error message.

How can I fix the issue?

Somehow it is fixed by itself. Nothing changed. Weird.
