Hi Bill,
This is certainly very annoying, and sorry that you have to experience it.
The only “natural” (i.e., expected) way I’m able to reproduce it is, if I just only copy the single file/app with the C4D icon and the name Team Render server or Client. This will not fly.
Since the usual suspects are listed here,
https://help.maxon.net/#1101
an instant crash is not listed.
Please get in contact with the support:

My best wishes, that this will soon work just fine for you.
All the best
