Ok, thanks Udo. So there is something wrong with my particular installation and/or W10 upgrade from W7.

Question: On your PC, do you have both Mathematica and CDF Player installed?

Answer: Yes, both, Mathematica 10.2.0.0 and CDF Player 10.2.0.0 are installed.

CDF Player 10.2 was also installed on an HP EliteBook 8560p (8 GB RAM, Windows 10 Professional 64 Bit). On this machine CDF Player is home alone (no desktop Mathematica there) and starts constantly in less than 5 seconds.

Thanks Udo for your response. On my PC that previously was on W8.1 the startup time is also ~7 s. CDF Player 10.2.

On the other PC, previously W7, I have given up. After much experimenting. Now rolled back the machine to its W7 origin. And CDF Player starts, as before, fast.

Besides the difference in original OS between the two PC's there is another difference: The "good" PC has both Mathematica and CDF Player installed. The "bad" PC has CDF Player only, not Mathematica.

Question: On your PC, do you have both Mathematica and CDF Player installed? Or the CDF Player only?

This one (30.6.2012) starts in about 7 seconds

it has been deinstalled afterwards; the new one

starts also in 7 seconds at most under Windows 10 Home 64 Bit.

How do you access the "About CDF Player" window?

When I open CDF Player 10.2 under Windows 7, below the Wolfram CDF Player logo I only get two buttons with links to the "The Computable Document Format" and "Adopting CDF" web pages. So far I can only verify the version by looking at the executable properties.

To access "About Wolfram CDF Player":

1. Start the CDF Player, and from within it open any CDF file.

2. You will now be able to access Help. And can select About ...
