Synapse shutting down when opened

Just to add some further info on things I have tried:

• Uninstall/reinstall Synapse
• Removing windows updates
• Re-adding windows updates
• I ran a diagnostic in Cortex which shows some errors with Synapse
• Resetting everything in Synapse settings

Here are a few links I've referred to in the process:

• Applications fail to open due to .Net Framework v4 failure - Microsoft Community
• How to Fix Razer Synapse Not Opening on Windows 10 / 8 / 7 (zerodollartips.com)
• Razer Insider | Forum - Found the issue causing very annoying hard-crash bug
• How to resolve Razer Synapse 3 cannot launch or crashes
• app crashing due clr.dll fault module (microsoft.com)

From the diagnostic event log - I've just searched for "Synapse" and pasted any info on the errors: 1201 - Time : 4/18/2021 12:48:05 1202 - Source : Application Error 1203 - Description : Faulting application name: Razer Synapse 3.exe, version: 3.1.627.5, time stamp: 0x8710da43 Faulting module name: clr.dll, version: 4.8.4300.0, time stamp: 0x5f7e61bb Exception code: 0xc0000409 Fault offset: 0x0060cd78 Faulting process ID: 0x3010 Faulting application start time: 0x01d734489723091d Faulting application path: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Razer\\Synapse3\\WPFUI\\Framework\\Razer Synapse 3 Host\\Razer Synapse 3.exe Faulting module path: C:\\Windows\\Microsoft.NET\\Framework\\v4.0.30319\\clr.dll Report ID: 1aa033cd-883f-441f-b779-2bf312a1ecd0 Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID: 1201 - Time : 4/18/2021 12:45:37 1202 - Source : VSS 1203 - Description : Volume Shadow Copy Service error: Unexpected error calling routine CoCreateInstance. hr = 0x8007045b, A system shutdown is in progress. . 1201 - Time : 4/18/2021 12:45:37 1202 - Source : VSS 1203 - Description : Volume Shadow Copy Service information: The COM Server with CLSID {4e14fba2-2e22-11d1-9964-00c04fbbb345} and name CEventSystem cannot be started.

I've managed to sort it after finding this thread - I used the colour management fix and it now works fine: /synapse-3-crashing.70054/
