Problem solved.
Today I installed in program default location. It worked without a hitch. It appears that, at least on our machines, installing program anywhere other than default location gives us login errors. It’s not a big issue but I had one drive allocated for graphics development so it’s more of a personal organization issue but it also makes me wonder what else is going on under hood. Still, as long as I can learn and create, I’m not that concerned but I will be closely monitoring my system for anomalies for here on out.
Perhaps others have had this issue as well and it was noted in support section. I don’t know, I didn’t check. It was my 1st go-to measure as problems like this are not new. I’ve noticed this issue popping up with other programs for about 18 years on nearly every version of windows.
