Splash screen but no error in Windows 11

I searched for a while to figure out what was going on with my Navisworks installation on Windows 11. I would get a splash screen but no explicit error and the program would never start. I finally found the following conversation

 

Solved: EAGLE not working on Windows 11 - Autodesk Community - EAGLE

 

about a program I've never even heard of, after looking at my event viewer and seeing that libeay32.dll was the issue. As it turns out, simply downloading a clean, updated version of the dll from a trusted source on the internet (I'm not including a particular link, but there are a number of places to find the file) and replacing it in the program folder appears to solve the problem. From my research, it looks like this affects a number of AutoDesk products in Windows 11, so hopefully this post will be helpful to folks with other AutoDesk products experiencing the same issue.

Thanks for the tip. We have a number of Win11 machines running the AEC Collection and no issues so far.
