12.11 windows 'user install' - crash on settings

(1/4) > >>

I am using codeblocks 12.11 (user install) on windows 7.  Every time I go to "Settings" --> "Environment" or "Settings" --> "Editor", I get a crash.  The message says:

"codeblocks.exe has stopped working - a problem casued the program tos top working correctly. please close the program"

I have tried running in Admin mode, same trouble.  I also can't figure out how to make codeblocks generate a debug log in windows.

Hi!
12.11 is quite old right now.. I would try a nightly build on windows (until the new release is out) or you use the RC1. It isn't that difficult to set up...

greetings

I just installed the latest nightly (16 November 2013 build) along with the two dll's provided and get the same crash, the only difference is that the error now says:

"Cross-platform IDE built around wxWidgets, designed to be extensible and configurable. has stopped working - a problem has caused the program to stop working correctly. please close the program"

Try deleting or renaming the Code::Blocks config file.

IIRC, it named default.conf likely in Folder %APPDATA%\Roaming\codeblocks

Still getting the same error.

So far I have:
 - removed the appdata/Roaming/Codeblocks folder completely
 - completely uninstalled codeblocks and downloaded and installed 13.12-RCI
 - tried installing both to a folder on my desktop as I prefer and to Program Files as is typical
 - tried running it from the command line with --debug-log and /d, also tried --safe-mode.

I could not find any debug logs anywhere.  This is kind of a bummer, any other suggestions?
