I have received numerous "xlights stopped working"--the popup where windows offers to find a solution to your problem and you have to close the program. I have been doing various things tonight that resulted in this error(saving, rendering, enlarging the time steps, etc). One thing I found (that I will just try to avoid...) is that, when I save my sequence files, I usually drop my preview window back in its normal place (I use a laptop with a single screen, so I need to move the preview window around a lot) just before I save. I found tonight that I get this error message consistently when I do this, but not when I "just save" the sequence without placing the preview screen in its normal place. As I said above, I'll just try to avoid that particular sequence of steps when saving....
3/27 update--it seems like I am getting these "program closed" errors whenever I re-size one of my sequence screen windows then try to save the file. I just tested this by just using the effects screen in its normal place (to the left, stacked with my other default param's...) and I was able to save some effect changes that I did a few minutes ago, which made the program stop with the error message. I also tested it by leaving the re-sized house preview screen superimposed on the sequencer screen; that worked fine. I then resized the preview screen and put it back in its regular place and tried to save--got the close & the error message again.

I to have the stop working message when trying to open model preview window, crashes in the layout tab and the piano will only work once on setup. If change anything it does not play. If I restart my computer xlights works fine until I close it and reopen. Windows 10. Then all issues come back. The only thing I have saved is my layout as have not done any sequences yet for this year.

Pretty much the same here seems to close after I hit render or save

Same situation here.."xlights has stopped working" and no error report. I dropped back to 2016.13 and no problems.

Same error When I attempt to add a group. I can add groups but when I click OK it gives me the "Xlights stopped working error 2016.14" looks for solution then closes. 8)
