Hi,

Installed Toad 13.1.0.78 on 64bit Windows 10. Was working totally fine. Then imported settings and was working finr. The second time started Toad, it comes up fine, however after 1 minute or so it crashes with the error : "Toad for Oracle has stopped working".

I edited C:\Users\<user\>\AppData\Roaming\Quest Software\Toad for Oracle\13.1\User Files\Toad.ini

[SETTINGS]  
Debug=1  
DebuggerOption=0  
CodeInsightBoolOptions=1040318705

Started Toad and crashed again.

I had similar issue - but with "Run as Administrator" it worked fine. I had outdated printer drivers since the last update windows rejected the current drivers due to invalid signatures or something like that. I removed all printers, set the default printer to a virtual on (PDF writer) and all of a sudden TOAD started working. I came here to search for a solution and found the printer issue mentioned in another thread. HTH.
