An immediate Help->About while Analyzing crashes Speccy 1.22.536 in Speccy Bug Reporting Posted June 26, 2013 I just upgraded to 1.22.536. I started the program and (being impatient) I did Help->About to immediately see the version number. All categories said "Analzying" while I did this. The About box appears, I confirm this is version 1.22.536. The main window updates the Operating System category for my OS (Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1) and then it crashes. I would restart the program and try Help->About and it would consistently crash. I submitted many comments to Piriform via their crash report popup dialog. I found this problem very reproducible. Also, I even started to see 1.22.536 crash without even using Help->About. That is, as soon as the Speccy printed the OS information, bam, it crashed. So I downgraded all the way down to 1.21.491 and the program did not crash. The I upgraded back to 1.22.536 and started the program and waited for all results, and didn't see a crash. I restarted 1.22.536 again, did Help->About while Analyzing and I got it to crash. After making 1.22.536 crash via Help->About while Analyzing, subsequent restarts crash without Help->About. It seems that I'm able to tickle something to make it crash, and this tickle appears persistent ... causing subsequent hands-free crashes. Anybody else see this?

I just upgraded to 1.22.536.
I started the program and (being impatient) I did Help->About
to immediately see the version number. All categories said
"Analzying" while I did this.
The About box appears, I confirm this is version 1.22.536.
The main window updates the Operating System category
for my OS (Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit SP1) and then it crashes.
I would restart the program and try Help->About and it would
consistently crash. I submitted many comments to Piriform
via their crash report popup dialog. I found this problem
very reproducible.
Also, I even started to see 1.22.536 crash without even using
Help->About. That is, as soon as the Speccy printed the OS
information, bam, it crashed.
So I downgraded all the way down to 1.21.491 and the program
did not crash. The I upgraded back to 1.22.536 and started the
program and waited for all results, and didn't see a crash.
I restarted 1.22.536 again, did Help->About while Analyzing and I
got it to crash.
After making 1.22.536 crash via Help->About while Analyzing,
subsequent restarts crash without Help->About. It seems that
I'm able to tickle something to make it crash, and this tickle
appears persistent ... causing subsequent hands-free crashes.
