Windows 10 "Anniversary Edition" has a new feature: "Let's crash Igor 6 for no reason at all".

Actually, they named it "Let Windows manage my default printer". You can turn it off using the Printers & Scanners section of the Settings window to prevent crashing Igor.

Tonight's Igor 6 Nightly Build has a fix so that the "Let Windows manage my default printer" feature will not cause Igor to crash even if it is on.

You can get the nightly build for Windows now from:
