Hi,

I’m at a loss right now. This problem started a few weeks ago but with restarting the computer or Defold would usually solve it, but now neither of those options work…

The problem occurs basically when editing a collection or gui file, specifically when interacting with an element. If I try to click on a node, for example, it crashes. If I try to add a new box to my gui, it crashes. This also happens in new projects, so I don’t think the problem lies in my project.

I’m attaching my hs\_err\_\*.log files on the Defold folder. I checked some of them and the “problematic frame” happen on atioglxx.dll. I googled it and it’s related to my graphics card apparently, so I tried updating its drivers, but that didn’t work either.

Any clues to this?  
Thank you

Hi @_thegrizzlybear! This sounds similar to [Defold Editor (x64) crashing unexpectedly · Issue #2118 · defold/editor2-issues · GitHub](https://github.com/defold/editor2-issues/issues/2118)  
Can you try and run the editor with gl debug logging as described in the issue and mail me the results? I’ll have a closer look on monday.
