If Paradox 10 cannot be opened from Start Menu but opens if you double-click a Paradox table in Explorer, try this
  • Restart in Safe-mode
  • Uncheck the Paradox Welcome window: 'Show this welcome screen at start-up'.
  • Restart in normal mode.

My comments:
OTHER SOLUTIONS:
Launch Paradox with a -c for a clean desktop, and change the setting for Welcome screen under Tools | Settings | Preferences, the Experts tab.

Set a registry setting as shown
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Corel\Paradox\10.0\PDOXWIN\Properties]
"ShowStartupExpert"="False"
