Please report back any results to help others.

Thank you everyone for the answers and help.

I'm doing tests to try to find out what will really solve the problem.

Yesterday I checked the video drivers and Windows came back with the message that they are all up to date.

Yesterday and this morning the program worked without problems. I closed and opened the program several times and everything went fine.

Today, after Calibre was updated to version 7.1.0, Sigil had problems starting again.
The problems remained, even after I uninstalled and downgraded Calibre.

I restarted the notebook and Sigil started working again.
I turned off the AVAST (anti virus) modules. Apparently it didn't affect the problem.

At the moment I have Calibre updated again, anti virus active and Sigil working (I closed and opened it about 2 times while typing this message - everything ok)

If the problem continues I will try "Disable GPU Acceleration in QtWebEngine/Preview" as suggested...
