I have additional country theme packs from MS.

Spot on!

I removed the added themes from C:\users\user-name\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\themes and.......BINGO!

It's all working now. So I have to go through the add-ons and figure out which one was the culprit.

Thanks Neil for taking the time to provide some constructive comments to help sort this out.

If you can let us know which additional theme was the problem we can look into fixing the issue.

Quick update to this, I believe I have found the problem.  It is a path limit inside the WB UI as unlike every other kind of substyle the full path is being stored for those and thats exceeding the internal buffers for paths. 

I hope we can get an update out which sorts this out at some point this week.

Great, I look forward to an update.

Well I can't pin it to one theme. It seems like having multiple themes in different combinations in that folder (C:\users\user-name\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\themes) causes it to crash. I'll keep trying to narrow it down.

The update totally worked. Nice job.

I can put any or all back and no Crash. They all are available as sub styles.

Thanks again Neil
