Bridge Software Locked Up when Starting.

[WarEagleX16]

Winflex Bridge is locked up at startup. Fresh install of Panel, Ran bridge and it never gets past the "Firmware Update 1.0.5 is the current version, 1.1.0 is the latest version." notice with Chinese writing waiting in the lower right corner (button?). I get the not responding error when I click anywhere on the program. Started in admin mode and normal mode, started with FS 2024 running and not running. Rebooted computer. Bridge program is locked up. Repaired VC Dist, same issue. Cannot get Bridge program to run.

Update - The program locks up within 2 seconds of starting. I can click on buttons to get into the main program within 2 seconds and which time the program locks up.

I was able to use the 2-second clicks to sneak in an update the firmware to 1.1.0; however, it is still locking up and is useless. I ran the VC Distributable repair tool in case that is the issue. No fix. I unplugged all WINCTRL airbus hardware in case that was causing a USB conflict, still no fix. So at this point I have purchased a paperweight.
