No errors in log.
Is there anything unusual about your hardware setup? Are you on a home PC or a remote server?

Nothing that changed between running 6.25 for a year with no bugs.

Did you see the error log I sent you?

It had error:

2021-04-09 14:51:41|Unexpected balance (2154) in House Tourney account at startup
2021-04-09 14:56:57|Unexpected balance (2154) in House Tourney account at startup

Those errors are normal when you startup after a crash during a running tournament. The crash recovery runs after that to refund the players.

Try running the Windows Memory Diagnostic tool (Start -> All Programs -> Administrative Tools) to make sure there isn't a bad memory card.

Do you have access to another Windows computer where you can run a test with a fresh install?

I found the problem! Check this setting:

System tab -> Account Settings -> Crash Recovery

I bet yours is turned off, right? Turn that back on for now, at least until the next update. I made a dumb coding error in 6.26 where the crash recovery file routine will lock up the program when that setting is disabled.
