I tried a new user, and that didn't work, either. So, I returned to my
earlier statements, and I realized that I had the following bloda apps
installed that I didn't realize:
* Embassy Trust Suite
* Windows Defender
* SpyBot TeaTimer

I uninstalled these, and then everything worked for me.

Thanks for your time and suggestions.
