[GNC] gnucash 3.x crash on startup windows 10

[Floris van Nee]

Hi all,

I'm running a practically fresh install of Windows 10 (I just formatted my
disk today, after which I installed Windows 10 and some other programs like
Office, Visual Studio, Chrome etc.). I also installed GnuCash 3.3, but
after it finished the installation, it failed to start. I see the splash
screen and also what I think looks like the tip-of-the-day screen for a
split-second, but everything closes again within one second.
Strange thing is that I don't see anything in the logs - even if I run it
specifically with debug mode, all I get in the log is some INFO texts (see
below).
Any idea if I'm missing some dependency perhaps? I've tried uninstalling
and installing a different version in the 3.x branch, but all of them seem
to have the same problem. I also tried running with administrator rights,
unfortunately without any success either.
