Hello new Apprentice here! Been struggling on trying to open the software for several hours since installation..

I've tried many troubleshooting regarding to what the sidefx forum said but can't seem to find any specific errors as this freezing houdini. I'm also pretty sure that both HoudiniServer and HoudiniLicenseServer are running and the license server manager thing is fine. My current suspicion is the administrator file folder access problem which I'm quite confused as if I've already set their folder to all access, but the launcher seems to struggle and loops the process when I tried to repair or reinstall the specific houdini 21 build

Frozen Houdini

Current laptop (Acer Nitro v15) specs

Window 11

i9-13900H

Rtx 4060 laptop 8gb / intel iris xe 16gb

Probably the worst software introduction next to solidworks
