<p>It's not project specific, as I can't even get that far. The crash happens before any option is given to select a working project.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21730: QGIS crashes on "Open project"https://issues.qgis.org/issues/21730?journal_id=1036372019-04-02T11:42:29ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<p>No luck with that. Have also uninstalled and removed all program files, redownloaded launcher and reinstalled but still coming with the same bug.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21730: QGIS crashes on "Open project"https://issues.qgis.org/issues/21730?journal_id=1036462019-04-02T12:51:52ZGiovanni Manghigiovanni.manghi@gmail.com

<p>rather than a bug seems a local issue, as this is, of course, not a general issue.</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21730: QGIS crashes on "Open project"https://issues.qgis.org/issues/21730?journal_id=1036482019-04-02T13:02:41ZJürgen Fischerjef@norbit.de

<p>Oh, it doesn't crash for you on start. Can you pinpoint the directory which is initially used to load projects on your machine? Does it have any "uncommon" files?</p> QGIS Application - Bug report #21730: QGIS crashes on "Open project"https://issues.qgis.org/issues/21730?journal_id=1036522019-04-02T13:41:46ZAlistair Branagha.branagh@allenarchaeology.co.uk

<p>Yeah it's a funny one. Program starts fine, also everything else seems functional i.e. creating layers, polygons, georeferencer launches fine etc.<br />All projects are saved on a server drive on a work network.</p>
<p>Most, if not all of our projects were started in 2.18. We still use it as we've found it to be more stable than 3. However it feels like since installing 3.6 a week ago, 2.18 started playing up. Not following designated snapping options at all and crashing when attempting to save changes to shapefiles. This problem has not been encountered on other machines. I think use of 3.4 across the network has been mixed but mostly I assumed that to be folks resistance to change. I've certainly attempted to upgrade before and been put off by crashes but I don't recall them being as a result of this.</p>
<p>I've had success opening projects through file>open from recent. I've also been able to open projects by launching them from their location. At least I can still work with the program it is just curious why that Open Project function is causing so much trouble!</p>
