Hi, Could you pass the -dr flag to paraview.exe when it starts up. This flag will disable any custom settings you may have set up for previous versions of ParaView that may be interfering with the current version. We don't have a list of these settings, but I would like to track down which settings can lead to crashes if that is indeed the issue.
To start ParaView with the -dr flag, please find the shortcut to "ParaView 5.2.0", which is probably under something like C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ParaView 5.2.0-Qt-OpenGL2-Windows-64bit. Right-click on this shortcut and append to the Target: field the argument "-dr". Double-click the shortcut to launch ParaView. Does ParaView crash if you do that?
