Game freezes before reaching start screen

I've been playing SM63 on my computer these days and it worked perfectly fine - I got to the top floor of the castle. But today I tried to run the game and it freezes in the loading screen when Mario hits the first coin; if I skip that screen, it freezes after the copyright message. I downloaded the file again and it doesn't work either, but the web version is fine. Any hypothesis on why isn't this working, or any ideas on how to fix it?
Thanks :D
I know I could easily play the web version, but I'd rather download it onto my computer since it doesn't lag as much. xD

This answer might come in a bit late...

I remember having similar issues several years ago. I loaded it multiple times until it worked. If I remember correct, you don't have to wait too long for all coins each time. If you're using the downloaded version there should appear a 'Skip' button in the bottom right corner. You can avoid the whole coin stuff by clicking that one, though. That's pretty much all I know. : /

That's OK :)
Well, it fixed itself somehow lol. The thing was that even clicking the "Skip" button it wouldn't go further than the copyright screen. But it works fine now, idk why. xDDD
Thanks! :D
