Only HF and Chat Windows Showing - Win11

I see only these two Windows:

VARA HF log is showing this:

2024-04-25 03:50:27 WARNING: VARA is not connected to any App via TCP Port 8300

I've spent hours tweaking settings on Windows Defender and Malware Bytes with no effect. Also, I have deleted and reinstalled the programs about 3 times. I have experience with XP, 10 and Linux but this is my first computer with Windows 11.

I have WSTX working and Fldigi running on this computer. I never get either of these two VARA windows to show up:

Maybe they won't show until the TCP Port 8300 connection problem is solved? I'm using Hamlib with the other programs. I don't have Omni or Winlink loaded as my HF rig is an old IC-706MKII with a Digirig interface.

Thanks and 73,
