Unable to start server

Hi, I am trying to run Sonic Pi 3.1.0 on a school network, but when a student or teacher launches the program, it crashes at the splash screen. When ran as an admin it works fine. Any suggestions? Log as below.

Hi, sorry you’re having issues. Please could you report this on GitHub which is a much better place to have this discussion: http://github.com/samaaron/sonic-pi/issues
