Default REAPER not starting!! HELP!!

Hello. I tried to install a VST plugin, and re-scanned the VST cache. Went VERY slow, and I had to end the process. Now, REAPER is missing a lot of .dll files. I uninstalled and reinstalled directly from REAPER website twice, and have the same issue. What do I do now?
Offline & work tomorrow, I'll have to review the thread in a couple days...

Wheew. I shut down for a full minute, restarted, and waited about 3 minutes for REAPER to find missing .dlls - it kept reporting the same ones - but finally got started. I inserted & re-scanned my VST locations, imported my configuration, closed & re-opened the program and it seems to work fine. Hats off (again) to the COCKOS team for writing such a resilient program!
I now have v5.3. I expected to have to re-submit my license key, but it must be auto-detected because there is no nag screen.
Happy to have dodged a bullet.
