Yes this does sound like something specific to your system is having an impact.

This can happen if you set the Sigil default Temp folder to some place that does not exist or have no permissions for write access, etc. My guess is this is the root of your issue.

So you could try the following:

1. Use Windows to create a new folder someplace you have write access to in your home directory.

2. Then fire up Sigil and set the Sigil Default Temp Folder to point to that newly created folder.

3. Immediately exit out of Sigil so that your settings file is properly saved to the Sigil ini file

The next time you start Sigil, try what caused the crash and let us know what your Sigil Default Temp Folder path you set was and if it succeeds or not.
