I hope that Darren will provide you more details on that - but I think we no longer have any test made on Excel 2010, nor PCs running it, so it's also a challenge to debug it.
Probably you should keep using the version that worked well.

next try Excel 2013 64 bit (the stand alone version) with Power pivot and dax studio v2.7 under W10 creators edition on a 16GB PC.
(I have already discovered that the 32 bit 2010 version can't handle the amount of data I'm dealing with)

when in excel, pressing the DAX studio ribbon button has no effect. ??
Starting Dax studio from the run command can't find the model.

below the output of the checker for v2.7 of DAXstudio
(v2.4.3 exhibits the same behaviour - installing ADOMD and AMO for 2012 )
(v2.1.1 exhibits the same behaviour - installing net 4.5)

Is the main testing platform Excel 2013 or Excel 2016 ?

If you close all your Excel windows, then hold down left-shift while Excel starts up the add-in should start up with diagnostic logging enabled. If you can then click on the Excel add-in button to try to launch the DAX Studio UI hopefully the logs will capture some information about what is causing the issue here. If you then close Excel and paste the following path into a Windows Explorer window %AppData%\DaxStudio\Log you should see a file called DaxStudioExcel-yyyymmdd.log where the yyyymmdd reflects today's date. If you can attach that file to this issue we can have a look through it.

This issue, with excel 2010 and no connection should be closed. Response is : See if past versions work. For my 2010 configuration I should remain with v2.43, the last before ADOMD.

For the "no response on pressing the DAX button in Excel 2013 + " I will open a new issue
