EOS Utility 2 crashes on startup

Hi,

 

On my Windows 10 Pro computer, EOS Utility 2 crashes on startup, regardless of camera connected or not.

It has been working without an incident for the past half year, but now this malfunctioning.

 

I have tried uninstalling completely and installing "EOS Utility" from my CD and then upgrading to "EOS Utility 2", but the same happens, EOS Utility 2 crashes.

 

Any suggestions to what I could do?

 

Edit: I have a Canon 1000D (EOS Kiss F / EOS Rebel XS) so EOS Utility 3 is not an option.

Darn it. I’ll avoid writing the model number here again. Obviously there’s no limit to how I can mess it up.
