Cannot get Draftsight free version to operate on my computer.

I have installed Draftsight 2018 on my computer, but when I open the program, I get an error message saying that the program has stopped working and is closing, and being reported to Microsoft. What the heck? This program worked beautifully on my last computer. Nothing I have tried has worked, and the error message doesn't give any hint of the issue. Is there some odd bug out there? What am I doing wrong?
