Code::Blocks crashes upon start up in Windows 7

<< < (2/2)

Hi, problem solved thank you.

I uninstalled the latest version of code::blocks that I obtained using a google search (which led me to source forge and the version was 17.xx).

I then googled code:blocks normal wx28 installer, but didn't have any hits, but I assumed that the version was just an older version, maybe more suited/tested for compatibility with windows 7 ?

So I found this page http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads/26 which contained  variations of the ...16....   build of code blocks but near the bottom of the page was the advice

"if unsure, please use codeblocks-16.01mingw-setup.exe!"

On the right hand side was a link to the code either via Sourceforge.net or FossHub

On downloading and installing it now seems to be working.

Now to try it with some fortran code.

Thanks again.

So the crashing build is codeblocks-17.xx-wx31-setup-RC1.exe ?
Can you try this build: https://sourceforge.net/projects/codeblocks/files/Binaries/17.xx-RC1/Windows/codeblocks-17.xx-setup-RC1.exe/download ?
It is the normal codeblocks-17.xx-setup-RC1.exe
