Nw.js sample app's window is not opened on Windows 10

[gtrombitas]

NWJS Version : v0.58.0
Operating System : Windows 10 Pro 21H1

Expected behavior

I download Nw.js sources from https://dl.nwjs.io/v0.58.0/nwjs-v0.58.0-win-x64.zip URL. After I unzip the compressed file I navigate in the app's folder (nwjs-v0.58.0-win-x64). I double click on the nw.exe and nw.js window is opened.

Actual behavior

I double click on the nw.exe and the nw.js window isn't opened. I open the Window's Task Manager and there multiple (more than three) nw.js processes in the list.

How to reproduce

• Download the zip from https://dl.nwjs.io/v0.58.0/nwjs-v0.58.0-win-x64.zip URL
• Unpack the zip
• Execute nw.exe
• Open Task Manager

I am having this exact issue (both sdk and normal) on a fresh install of Windows 11 21H2. It was working fine on Windows 11 about 2 days ago.

I tried a previous release 0.57.1 and still getting the same issue.

I am having this exact issue on two PCs, including one with a fresh install of Windows 10 21H2.

I think I found the guilty: lack VC++ 2015-2022 runtime.
I installed that and the sample app (and my games with Construct 3) it's running again.

We tested VC++ installation and it worked. Now our Nw.js based application starts well and the window is opened after it. Thank you very much @CptRenko!

This maybe fix on win10.

I'm having the same issue with a fresh windows install, note that it seems that it did work < 0.50.x (0.49.2-sdk for example does work without VC2015-22)
