[Bug] AbCreator - Cannot Create New Data, Augmentation, Nor Extension File

[AntaresCD]

Title says it all. ABCreator crashes with error ACCESS VIOLATION Type: bad read. Creating a new definition file works without issue. I have the latest version of AB.

I can provide dumps if needed, but it is easily reproducible. Open ABCreator, select File->New->[whichever type] and it crashes instead of providing a list of definition files to choose from.

I've noticed the same issue as well when I was trying to create a new aug file.

Had same here as well

Been using the shortcut of copy a different aug or dat and then clearing it out which works but unable to create a new one

Hey everyone! Someone else (or maybe one of you) submitted a support ticket with the issue. We have the problem fixed, and it will be out in our next release (tentatively planned for next week).

That's great to hear. Thanks for the update Liz!
