Cannot open any file from project, Code Blocks crashes immediately? [solved]
iviviviviv:
I have a problem, because CodeBlocks crashes when I open any file from saved project. I have Windows 10, and CodeBlocks 13.12. Before this, I tried to use CodeBlocks 17.12, it was the same result, it crashed also. This problem appears on my new computer, where I just installed CodeBlocks.
I disabled Windows Deffender, all parts, it means: Defender Threat Protection Service, Defender Antivirus Network Inspection, Defender Antivirus Service. I also disabled Defender Firewall, but in Windows Services next to its icon it is written status: Running.
I tried to disable plug ins in CodeBlocks, and when I disabled all plugins except Scripting wizard and Compile, it is the same, code blocks crashes.
In my project folder I had file with extensions: .layout and .dependent. At the beginnig I could not open neither project in Code Blocks, it crashed immediately. When I deleted files with extensions .layout and .dependent in my project folder, now I can open the project without crash, but I cannot open any *.c or *.h file without crash.What should I do?
oBFusCATed:
Can you share the project?
Can you show a backtrace?
Sometimes CB generates a crashlog xml file. Do you have such file?
What happens if you rename the codeblocks folder in your appdata folder?
Does it crash if you create a simple hello world project?
iviviviviv:
No, it does not crash when I create and execute simple project "hello world".
I attached project here
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1DlXBXB4D14qzM3oQJOj7sRpnFwCDjuyS/view?usp=sharing
I did not find crash xml file, where should I look at?
Do you mean to rename my installation folder of CodeBlocks or something else, what is in appdata? I tried to rename my project, but it is the same.
And what is backtrace, where to search for it?

Are you able to make it crash if you use the project in a clean folder where you unpack the files from the archive?

Doesn't crash for me when using the latest version. (but I'm on linux at the moment)
Have you tried a night build?

Probably your temp folder, but there should a dialog showing the info. So if you don't see a dialog most probably the xml generation code haven't triggered.

Nope. I mean the folder where the settings are.
Most of the time this is in your user's folder in some appdata sub-folder.

You need a tool (like a debugger or backtrace generator) and build with symbols. But even without symbols it would be useful to see where it crashes.
BlueHazzard:
Also no crash here on windows with the latest trunk...
If you have .layout files or .depend file try to delete them
else you can try a nightly build from the forum....
