I have a Win 7 Pro running on a 32bit CPU.

I just installed PSoC Creator 4.2 on it.  (There were no installation reported issues).  When it launches 4.2, it crashes with an unexplained error every time within 15 seconds past the initial splash screen.

I have Creator 4.2 installed on two other machines with NO PROBLEM.

Note: I uninstalled 4.2 and installed Creator 4.1 Update 1.  Same issue.  Crashes within 15 seconds after the splash screen goes away.

Can you use Event Viewer and share the crash logs as mentioned in this link​? When the crash happens, check if there is any anti virus, end point protection etc. application event before it.
