CodeBlocks 12.11 crashes instantely upon loading on windows 7

[Master]

Hello all, i tried installing the latest version of CodeBlocks on my system , when i did , every time i try to open it up, it crashes immediately.
What is causing this problem ? the program doesn't show any errors which i can post here , it simply crashes and the close , debug window appears !

any idea whats happening here?

First you can try to remove the conf-file:
rename (or move it to a different place) "C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\CodeBlocks\default.conf" and try to start C::B.

If this does not work, look into C::B's executable folder, whether there is a file called "codeblocks.rpt" and post/attach it here.

Normally C::B runs just fine on Win7 or Win8, I use bot without issues (win 7 32 and 64 bit, win 8 32 bit).

Thankyou.
First of all there is no 'default.conf' located in the path you mentioned above, actually when i go to the CodeBlocks folder, there is only a folder named "share" and inside that there is a folder named 'codeblocks ' and inside that there are two folders named 'plugins' and 'scripts' respectively.

This is the contents of the codeblocks.rpt file:

[Master]

any help?

[stahta01]

I still suggest removing or renaming the default config file.

"%appdata%\Roaming\CodeBlocks\default.conf"

If you sill can not find it; start Code::Blocks in safe mode.
http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Code::Blocks_command_line_arguments

The option for this is "--safe-mode" without the double quotes.

If it boots OK; post back.

Or you can try this option from http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php?title=Personalities

Code

--personality="Lite"

It should allow you to use a different config file; if it works you STILL should find the bad default config and delete it.

in both cases it crashes !
I cant find any config file in that location , there is only one folder -as i have already mentioned- named share! here it is :

[BlueHazzard]

Delete the C:\user\Master\AppData\Roaming\Codeblocks folder
uninstall C::B and reinstall it...

if this doesn't help
try it to start c::B with admin rights....

Thanks , Doing as you told fixed it and now it is now working fine! 
i noticed there was a APPData folder inside CBs installation folder( i didnt say that i installed my new CB on an older version of CB installation -that installation belonged to my previous windows installment!)
deleting both folders didn't do any good either, so i uninstalled it and the new installation seemed to work just fine so far

It would have been useful information, right?
