Licensed TextAloud 3 (and demo 4) no longer functioning (Windows 10)

I wonder if anyone else has seen anything similar? It's been a while since I used TA, but recently I had a use case and fired it up. Or rather - I didn't. Because it never actually opens. Investigating, I can see it starting a process, and that process isn't terminating. In fact, every time I repeat firing it up, if I don't close any open TA processes it happily starts a new one. But the menu never opens and the application is never available.
I've tried removing and re-installing TA3, with no change in behaviour. I've tried installing TA 4 in demo mode, and it does exactly the same thing. So far I've been unable to proceed any further.
I know there have been Windows 10 patches since Ilast used it, but I can;t really recall how many or which ones. I did send a tech support note in, but no reply as yet. So I figured i'd come here and ask if anyone else has seen anything similar (blush).
