Actually looks like, in my case, the Cubase and WaveLab installations of Steinberg's Generic ASIO driver or their newer ASIO driver causes the problem. I've just uninstalled both and Cakewalk by Bandlab is now starting. Have reported this as Cakewalk Sonar (by Bandlab) trial comes up with an error message during the startup process which then seems to ignore the problem driver.

Vdist runtimes did not fix. Have completely removed and reinstalled (including deleting all related %appdata% and %programdata% files) and still not opening. I'm suspecting it is to do with latest Windows 11 24H2 updates. Have submitted a support request.

Are we going to see the updates and ongoing maintenance/development of the great (even now) synths Z3TA+2 and Rapture Pro as well as the still good (but quite latency heavy) LP-EQ, LP-MB and CA-2A audio effects?
