This was a windows 7 computer with a working Slicer that was recently migrated to Windows 10. It must be some sort of a corporate user policy change that probably broke the functionality. I managed to install other new programs (e.g., TurboVNC etc) that all seem to work.

It will be hard to chase, so I will just have them do a fresh reinstall of OS.
