I am running Windows XP 64bit edition, version 1280.
The project is a type created with static library,
however, this crash occurs with any project type.

I have oops in the same place:
In any project under 4.9.9.1 trying to open "Project
options" oopses with

"Access violation at address 002cf653. Write of address
002cf653".

Note that I too have XP 64bit edition, however version 1289.

Hey,
I also recently Enountered this problem. At least on my machine I could fix it by disabling the
data execution prevention in windows for dev-cpp. i use execution prevention on every process,
not just system processes. so i just added dev-cpp to the exception list. i have an intel core
duo T2500 processor (thinkpad t60: 2007-63g). i encountered this problem with both, 4.9.9.1 and
4.9.9.2. i haven't tried other releases.
ordinarily i get a message from windows when the execution prevention makes a process crash,
this time i didnt. maybe indicating that execution prevention is not really the problem, but
something connected to that. i use winxp pro, automatic updates are enabled, so system should be
up to date.
i hope this is helping.
