Broken: version: 2.82 (sub 1), branch: master, commit date: 2019-11-25 11:51, hash: rB62ba16d7c450
Worked: (optional)
Short description of error
can't open any file from anywhere, tried the splash screen, the file menu - both open and open recent, also tried a 3-4 very different files so its probably not the files. blender just closes.
Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
not applicable, unless you have the same laptop as me and build blender on the daily.
here's a video
oh and by the way, i was checking to see if blender could open a file saved from this exact version hash: rB62ba16d7c450 so i added a monkey and press ctrl + 2 to give it subdivision and it again crashed.
here's another video
but anyway, it does open the files saved by this exact version
the problem with old files still persists.
