I just updated to VS 17.12.1 today (11/21) from 17.12.0 around 11/14, and VAX 2024.8 two days ago (11/19), from I think 2024.6. Currently working in an Unreal project that's on 5.4.3.
This afternoon, I've had 2 crashes when looking at some C# files in Unreal (*.Build.cs files). I haven't been able to reproduce it when looking at the same files again, and I'm not sure how to get you the most useful information even if I can repro it (so please let me know). Here's the first Windows Event Viewer log.
Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 17.12.35514.174, time stamp: 0x67369be7
Faulting module name: VA_X64.dll, version: 10.9.2537.0, time stamp: 0x671ea830
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x00000000002548cd
Faulting process id: 0x7654
Faulting application start time: 0x01db3c43f3855894
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Professional\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe
Faulting module path: c:\users\mparker\appdata\local\microsoft\visualstudio\17.0_9f85749b\extensions\d2ykka54.wpy\VA_X64.dll
Report Id: 984c85db-d20f-4510-935a-7b626367a600
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
The other one was 12 min later and looks much the same, except:
Fault offset: 0x000000000065688c
Faulting process id: 0x9a1c
Happy to provide more info if I encounter it again and have a way to do so, but heads up that there may be some problem in 17.12.1. |

Are you getting a chance to debug this when the crash happens? I am wondering if there is any chance of a mini dump file, or even a full dump file?
Do you have any sense of the trigger? Did it seem like you were doing the same thing when the crash happened, or is there no sense of a pattern yet?
So far you are the only person reporting this, but any crashes are a serious concern, so I would like to try and pin this down if at possible. |

I have put in a bug report so we can keep an eye on this:
case=165200
which version or versions of Unreal Engine are you working with? I am not sure if this matters, but its another factor to check. |

The project is in UE 5.4.3. It's hard to remember exactly what I was doing, but I believe both times I was double-clicking a symbol to highlight it. The symbol is in a block that's like
#if UE_5_2_OR_LATER
foo
#else
SymbolIWasClicking = bar;
#endif
so the symbol was greyed out to Intellisense and not being compiled. I have gone back to the same file and clicked the same thing without issue, and I had a teammate try it with no issue.
The form of the crash was VS becoming completely unresponsive for ~20-30 seconds and then exiting completely. No indication as to what was happening at the time or afterwards. I only checked the Event Viewer after the second time, and found that it was a similar problem both times. No more issues since then, though I may not have been doing the same exact kind of work the rest of the day. |

Thank you for the details.
Even if there is no crash, if you keep on seeing regular pauses like this, while the IDE does not respond, this is something we should look into for you and with you.
Hard to know what is going on here without more details, but at least the event viewer information gives us a clue, which is something. |

I hadn't seen the issue again from the day of my original post until today, but I just hit it again.
Faulting application name: devenv.exe, version: 17.12.35527.113, time stamp: 0x6747908b
Faulting module name: VA_X64.dll, version: 10.9.2537.0, time stamp: 0x671ea830
Exception code: 0xc0000005
Fault offset: 0x000000000064e191
I had just navigated to a symbol with Alt+G and then used the back button on my mouse to return to where I was. It did not return, froze for a while (30+ seconds), and then exited completely like before. This probably doesn't provide much detail, as navigating to symbols and using the forward/back buttons on my mouse is what I do for hours each day without issue. I'm not sure if there's anything useful I can provide without a reliable repro, but let me know if there is and I can do my best to get it for you. |

Crash in VS 17.12.1 with VAX 2537/2024.8
