We cannot reproduce this problem. This is what we see:

2026-06-16 01:30:01.530 | Requested user files to download.
2026-06-16 01:30:04.943 |
2026-06-16 01:30:04.943 | SC Data | Connection to server complete.
2026-06-16 01:30:04.944 | No download requests in the queue to start downloads for. | Number times message added: 3

2026-06-16 01:30:08.173 | Files to Open on Startup | Opening file: ExampleChartbook.cht

There is no long delay. The long delay would indicate that in your case there are user files to download. We need to see the Message Log to see what those files are. They are taking a long time to complete in your case.
