Dell SupportAssist ver 3.8.1 Failing To Open

Hello Friends:

SupportAssist application (ver. 3.8.1) is failing to open, all of a sudden. Upon launching, the black screen hovers for a few minutes, eventually displaying the message:

"We ran into an unexpected Issue with Support Assist. Restart your PC and try again later."

I re-started my PC, and made additional attempts to launch the application, which it failed again, exhibiting the same failure message.

Man, I hate this!

My system:
