Issues with starting up mastercam(stuck on beginning startup tasks)

Hi guys, I need some advice on starting my mastercam, I waited about 1-4 hrs just trying to get the thing to open. It will not open for me as fusion 360 did easily. I have a I7 laptop.

what version are you using? and is it a full edition or HLE ?
you can only get 2019 and 2020 HLE. 2019 will expire soon -

If you are using a computer with no graphics card it will have difficulty with version 2019 and back.

Usually if it stops there it is a graphic card issue.
