IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2024.2.4 Crashes on Startup

I encountered an issue where IntelliJ IDEA Community Edition 2024.2.4 crashes immediately upon startup. A java_error_in_idea_xxxx.log file was generated in my user directory. Here are the initial lines of the error message:

#

From my investigation, it seems that the installed Astrill VPN tool might be causing this issue. I would prefer not to uninstall it. Is there any way to resolve this problem without doing so?

Thank you for your assistance!
