I was told to post the steps to recreate crash;
If I open Cubase and use the Cubase HISTORY to open a project, the project will open.
Since the recent update to 9.5, this is the only way I can open a project.
I can click SAVE and the project will save, however SAVE AS or OPEN OTHER and using any WINDOWS BROWSER will cause a crash.
Example:
Click OPEN OTHER from the main Cubase panel and a Windows browser appears. I can go back and forth trough the drive and any folder, but the second I click on any file the program will freeze.
Additionally, any use of the Windows Browser while inside a new project (IE: Browsing for midi or wav loops) will cause the program to crash/freeze.
In all cases , the only way out of the freeze is to Cont+Alt=Delete and END.
For me this is not a random event. It happens every single time making the program, unfortunately, useless.
