12.11 windows 'user install' - crash on settings
BlueHazzard:
sadly c::b has no good error logging...
you can start gdb from the command line
I suppose your mingw installation is in your path, then you can simply run
--- Code: ---path/to/cb/gdb.exe codeblocks.exe
--- End code ---
and if you get some segfault you can get a backtrace with
--- Code: ---bt
--- End code ---
but i think it won't contain many information, because c::b binaries arn't compiled with -g option...
greetings

The codeblocks.rpt file is nowhere to be found in either appdata, temp or installation folders.
I tried running it with gdb as suggested however gdb said:
--- Code: ---(no debugging symbols found)
--- End code ---
When the same crash occured nothing happened in gdb. I can't help but roll my eyes at the irony of not being able to debug my ide.

But how do we handle access rights if the exe is in program files?

Can you try to install after that search for codeblocks in you drive and manually delete any files you find, then install?
Also can you try a night build install?
originalsurfmex:
The problem is still there
I used everything search engine ( http://www.voidtools.com/ ) to find any remaining files - there weren't any in unusual places. I installed the nightly SVN 9455 and tried reproducing the crash both with MinGW and without MinGW.
After all of that, I also tried adding the MinGW bin folder to my system path.
It still crashes every time on those menus.
