ST3 crashes frequently since Build 3124

[carlosgonser]

I also copied my config backups to the %APPDATA%\Roaming\Sublime Text 3\ and everything is working fine, including installed packages, sublime_session and previous projects.

Both portable and installed x86 versions worked.

Now I remembered, I am also using the x86 version, just because of this kind stuff. For may experience, they are more trouble makers than the x86 version, as on Windows, as on Linux. Also, I do not see why Sublime Text needs a X64 version. Does it is planning to use more than 4 GB RAM? May be it is for performance as the x86 support on x64 machines being by virtualization:

WOW64 is the x86 emulator that allows 32-bit Windows-based applications to run seamlessly on 64-bit Windows. WOW64 is provided with the operating system and does not have to be explicitly enabled. For more information, see WOW64 Implementation Details.

The system isolates 32-bit applications from 64-bit applications, which includes preventing file and registry collisions. Console, GUI, and service applications are supported. The system provides interoperability across the 32/64 boundary for scenarios such as cut and paste and COM. However, 32-bit processes cannot load 64-bit DLLs for execution, and 64-bit processes cannot load 32-bit DLLs for execution. This restriction does not apply to DLLs loaded as data files or image resource files; for more information, see LoadLibraryEx.

A 32-bit application can detect whether it is running under WOW64 by calling the IsWow64Process function. The application can obtain additional information about the processor by using the GetNativeSystemInfo function. Note that 64-bit Windows does not support running 16-bit Windows-based applications. The primary reason is that handles have 32 significant bits on 64-bit Windows. Therefore, handles cannot be truncated and passed to 16-bit applications without loss of data. Attempts to launch 16-bit applications fail with the following error: ERROR_BAD_EXE_FORMAT.

I’m having the EXACT same problem of @carlosgonser nd @evert.ramos and we are brasilians (i really don’t get why only 3, and 3 brasilians had the exacttly same problem, i mena, freezes when we move our mouse, and even in the registration file we can’t put the code, only works running sublime with administrator privileges)

Maybe you guys did some changing in any locale or translation file that maybe ruining the experience for us ?

É brazucas, vamos ter que esperar, estranho demais só nós três estarmos com esse erro, não ?

[FichteFoll]

There is no localization for Sublime Text, barring potential keyboard layout issues.

There is something else going on here, because @carlosgonser said that after trying to run 3124 then 3114 wouldn’t work, even though it did before. Because of that, I’m not convinced it isn’t some sort of environment issue, however I don’t know what it is.

As @FichteFoll said, there isn’t an localization we do. There certainly have been changes since 3114, but we did 5 decent sized dev build between 3114 and 3124, so it is hard to pin down what may have triggered the issue on your machines. If you can figure out at what dev build the error starts for you, it may help in figuring it out.

Right now, since I can’t reproduce it, I can’t really do much to fix it.

[addons_zz]

after trying to run 3124 then 3114 wouldn’t work, even though it did before

Later he said:

Installing the x86 version made it work too.

So, looks like before upgrading, he has the 3114 x86, and upgraded to x64 3124. And when tried to install the 3114, he installed the 3114 x64, instead of the 3114 x86, so it does not worked. Just last him to confirm that installing the 3114 x64, does not work also, but both 3114 x86 and 3124 x86 are working fine.

Maybe it is a Windows 10 problem. What is the build you tried to reproduce it? It is the same as him?

Windows 10 Pro
Version 1607
OS Build 14393.187
Both Windows and Sublime x64

Also, what third part static or dynamic libraries Sublime Text depends on for loading on? Maybe some of them are different/updated/out-of-date across our Windows 10 systems.

[carlosgonser]

So, looks like before upgrading, he has the 3114 x86

I think I had the x64 version installed before, as I updated to 3114 through the auto updater, but I can’t assure that, since I don’t have the original setup filed I used anymore.

It’s certainly not related to localization, as my laptop is american and my Windows is original and set up with en_US locale.

[oliverdrummond]

Same thing for me… Even if I “rollback” to an older version, the freeze persists.

[oliverdrummond]

I’m also brazilian and experiencing the same problem.

[lvian]

Hey guys, created an account here just so I could join and help out saying that I never had problems with sublime, but since last update I can’t use it anymore because it freezes no matter what I do. I’m also from Brazil

[addons_zz]

Are you guys using the x86 version or the x64?

[wbond]

I’m curious if you have trouble with Build 3119? The build after this we added some fixes for Unicode and Python issues, however that should really only affect plugin_host.exe, and not sublime_text.exe.

For anyone who is having this problem with Sublime Text, the three most useful bits of information would be:

1. Does the portable version work when installed in a path with only ASCII characters?
2. What is your %APPDATA% folder name (enter this into the Explorer address bar)? Does it contain non-ASCII characters?
3. Does the 32bit version work, but the 64bit not?

[awmaito]

Having the same problems described here and I am from Brazil too.

1a. Portable 64bits version crashes when installed in C:\stx64.
1b. Portable 32bits version DOES NOT crash when installed in C:\st3x32.
2. %APPDATA% = C:\Users\WinMac\AppData\Roaming
3. Installed x32 version (not portable) and it works. Only x64 version crashes.

Removed all installed versions and did this to check some more info:

Can’t really say witch was the last version I was running because I uninstalled everything after the upgrade and crashing problems. Removed all installed versions, including Sublime AppData files. Installed Build 3119 64bits. After installing the “Enter License” showed up but when mouse moved to the window, it crashed. So the Build 3119 64bits does not work too. Uninstalled this build (with all files). Installed Build 3114 64bits and it crashed. Uninstalled.

Other info:

• When running ST3 64bit as administrator, it doesn’t crash. But we can’t open files with file associations. We need to go to “File > Open”.

I tried every tip discussed here, cleaning sublime files, changing directory, different builds etc … but nothing worked. After @addons_zz post I decided to try the x86 version and so far it is working without a problem, but the problems persists with the x64 versions (which I was using until now )

Can you answer the questions I posted above? I’m trying to figure out if there is anything in common with users having trouble with the x64 build.

[lvian]

1- No, the portable x64 does not work running on a path like c:\sub64
2- C:\Users\Vianhellsing\AppData\Roaming
3- Yes the 32bit version is working without any problem

[rancho]

it’s works!!!

[rancho]

I figured out! thanks @oivva

My Evn: Arch Linux x86_64, sublime-text-dev 3126

Mac and Windows details see here

0. Close Sublime Text

1. Try to remove these folders:

    ~/.config/Sublime Text 3/Cache
    ~/.config/Sublime Text 3/Index

2. Try to remove these files:


    ~/.config/Sublime Text 3/Local/Session.sublime_session

3. Create new workspace for your project.

4. if you using `Markdown Extended` package, remove or ignore it in setting

AKA, clean Cash & Index, forbidden Markdown Extend, and re-built your Project workspace

BTW, MarkdownFootnotes could be substitution !

Galera meu pc ficou todo bugado com a nova atualização do windows 10 de aniversário… tanto o Sublime quanto o Atom dão problemas… o Filezilla esses tempos também travou, estava utilizando a versão de 64bits estava travando passei para o de 32 no filezilla e melhorou… mas o restante está tudo dando problema… já formatei o pc e instalei do zero direto no build de aniversário… certeza que o problema vem dai…

[addons_zz]

Folks my pc got all buggy with the new windows update 10 birthday … so lofty as the Atom give problems … Filezilla these times also caught, was using the 64bit version was waging I went for 32 in filezilla and improved … but the rest is all giving problem … I formatted the pC and installed direct zero on the anniversary of build … sure the problem is then …

So:

1. You used the Sublime Text x86 version and it do not worked?
2. Try the x86 portable version running from your desktop.

Então:

1. Você usou a versão Sublime x86 Texto e que não funcionou?
2. Tente a versão portátil x86 rodando a partir do seu desktop.
