Any advice, please?

I would recommend running check disk then reinstalling the slicer. My guess is that a file or files got corrupted somehow.

RE: PrusaSlicer does not start
Thanks for the reply!
I did a bit of research. Tried what you have suggested, alas it does not help. Also tried to remove all applications and windows updates that I have installed after i have used PrusaSlicer last time, again without succesd.
At last it turned out, that the Prusa Slicer it not compatible with my dual display setup.
I have a Dell XPS notebook, and a new external 4k monitor with what i have replaced my other monitor few days ago. Usually i configure my monitors to extend the display, this was the case this time alse.
If the notebook monitor is my main display (resolution is 1920 x 1200), then the PrusaSlicer can be started.
If the external monitor is the main display (native resolution is 2560 x 1440), then the PrusaSlicer crashes.
If I have configure monitors to duplicate instead of extend, then the PrusaSlicer can be started again.
I did not experience the same behavior in any other application, so i think this must be a bug in the PrusaSlicer.
Meanwhile i found an issue on the github already for this case ( https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/5573), so i gonna subscribe to that.

@zts
This worked thank you, I have a Dell XPS and did this change and it worked first time. This is insane but it worked thanks
RE: PrusaSlicer does not start
I had the same issue... I followed the advice above and it also worked for immediately...
I've spent at least 5 hours trying to figure it out. I found this thread and it took 5 seconds to fix.
Seriously, thank you VERY much!
