New version Avidemux does not start under Windows 10 x64

I saw this post Re: New version 2.7.2 of Avidemux does not start under Windows 10 x64.   I too cannot get the software to launch at all.  Is there a solution to the issue?

Please specify which version of Avidemux your post refer to. If the problem affects one or both of the nightlies built on Dec. 2, we will need to troubleshoot the issue.

MinGW-built Windows x86_64 nightlies: https://avidemux.org/nightly/win64/
VC++-built Windows x86_64 nightlies: https://avidemux.org/nightly/vsWin64/

If it affects an older version, please update and re-test (anything older than the last release is entirely unsupported, any issues with the last release need to be verified against the latest available nightly).
