BV2017 standard 7.81 -- Startup errors, 11 dialogs, then it works?

SOLVED

Is anyone experiencing this issue?

I get the following error dialogs:

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: getpanels2compatibility

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: iscreated

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: getid

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: getid

- OLE Exception: (800401F3): Invalid class string

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: getpanels2compatibility

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: iscreated

- Exception 24 not trapped: an instance of the class bclicensese (object reference: 00000261) does not understand: getid

- Cannot bind to server Sage.BusinessVision.WebEntitlement.BVEntitlement

- Error dialog with single upside down question mark and OK button

Then it works fine.

Tried:

- Reinstalling

- Removing AV

- Windows updates

- Reinstalling .NET framework (latest)

Sage support told me to post here as they have no clue.

Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
