What version of DX4WIN?  I can try it myself if I can find the same
version or something close to it.

It may be a Win 10 thing, though I no longer have a Win7 system to try
it on.  Both 8.05 and 9.01 take several seconds to start on my work
laptop.  It only has an SSD, so I don't know what the delay is from.
Yes, logs load quickly.
