Sublime Text won't start up - crashes silently

#1

Windows 7 x64.

When I start either ST2 or the latest ST3 directly or try to open a file, nothing happens. Crashreporter.exe runs briefly, and I see a .dmp file being created.

The problem goes away when I restart the computer before returning again at some point later.

  1. No other instances are running (checked task manager)
  2. I have tried the “clean slate” (removing appdata)
  3. Affects both x86 and x64 releases of ST2 and ST3
  4. Did not used to do this!

This is very frustrating so would appreciate any help.

Cheers.

I’m sure people would like to help, but there isn’t really much to go on. Since it didn’t used to do this, what’s changed since then? Is there some odd thing in the files you are trying to open? What are you doing in the run before it crashes? Note these are kind of random questions to just get some more information.

This is happening for me as well, but only when I try to open particular javascript files; I am running on a mac vs.10.7.5. I have tried clearing out the stored session files in the library>application support>sublime text>settings folder. No dice though.

Sorry; this solved my issue: github.com/SublimeLinter/Sublim … ssues/154;

To the above: is it possible that your saved session(s) could include a js or css file open that exceeds 4096 characters AND that you have the SublimeLinter Package installed?
