Yep. That worked.

Thanks.

Here is the registration entry before I reset the GUI settings.

Code:

Open up the registry editor (type regedit.exe in the start menu and run the program) and go to Computer\HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Bitcoin\Bitcoin-Qt. Then click File > Export and export those registry keys to a file and post the contents of that file here. Those registry keys correspond to the GUI settings for Bitcoin Core. Then start Bitcoin Core with the -resetguisettings command line option (add it to the target for your shortcut) or add that option to your bitcoin.conf temporarily. This will clear any and all GUI settings that you have, and because it will, I need to see what you had previously to help debug this problem which is why you need to export them first with regedit (I think I know what the problem is, I just want to be sure).

Installed new version of bitcoin-qt 0.15.0 on windows 10 64-bit and now it crashes every time i start it after it finishes loading the blockchain.

last few lines of debug:

What to do next?

EDIT:

This is the debug in visual studio:

Unhandled exception at 0x000000000134450C in bitcoin-qt.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x0000000002600FF8.
