Application won't start after Windows 11 upgrade - Global Mapper v20 x64.

I recently upgraded to Windows 11, and when I tried to launch Global Mapper it failed with this message:

"The application was unable to start correctly (0xc000007b). Click OK to close the application."

I don't know if it was caused by the upgrade. I uninstalled the software, and re-installed, but with same results. Thinking it was from WIndows 11, I rolled back to WIndows 10, and re-installed again, but with the same results on the "unable to start" error. I'm not sure at this point if it's a Windows issue, or if I've somehow disconnected my license.

There was a help request titled "Problem Opening Map" from 2012.  At one point in troubleshooting that problem, somebody suggested extracting the contents of a zipped install, and pasting them into the program folder in WIndows. That was for version 14. I am running Global Mapper v20, or was until it stopped working.

Thanks for any suggestions
