most likely due to common crashing with CHM files (often those are interactive) Since your last tab was FilePath = C:\Program Files\FabFilter\Pro-R 2\FabFilter Pro-R 2.chm which is a CHM in a protected area.

This means either use the most recent pre-release or a much older unaffected version. So I suggest pre-release will be more stable
