Bug: First file opened does not colorize (tested with 9.3.7 and 9.4.5)

[Dominick Samperi]

The first org mode file opened (.txt suffix) is not colorized. To force
colorize I use 'org-mode-restart. Subsequently opened txt files are
properly colorized. This happens under Windows 10 using Emacs 27.1 and
27.2, and org-mode 9.3.7 and 9.4.5. There are no problems under Ubuntu Linux.

Oddly, the problem does not appear on my new desktop (Lenovo). It
happens on my ASUS laptop. I'm using the same version of org-mode and
Emacs on both machines.

I copied .emacs.d from the desktop to the laptop
to be sure the environments are the same, and I installed Emacs 27.1
and 27.2 on the laptop. The colorize problem occurs on the laptop no
matter the environment. It also occurred with my old desktop.

Changing the suffix to .org does not help. Still the first file opened
does not colorize.
I first observed this problem about six months ago (and have been
using a function
key to fix with 'org-mode-restart).

The problem does not appear on a new desktop, running
the same version of Emacs, same version of org-mode, and same .emacs.d.

The only notable difference between the new machine and the older machines
where the problem occurs is that the newer machine has an solid state drive,
whereas the other machines have conventional hard drives.

What about running emacs -Q and then opening the org file. Does the
syntax highlighting work then?
