Blender 2.79a RC crashes instantly when I try to open an existing .blend file.
When I launch Blender it shows the usual startup scene but if I try to add any object, or even edit the cube (edit mode) it crashes instantly too.

Please :
Ensure both your OS and drivers are fully up-to-date (and use official GPU drivers, not those provided by windows or tablet/laptop maker).
Launch Blender from the command line with -d option and attach as text file here any error printed out in the console (do not paste it directly in comment).
Try to run Blender through Software OpenGL, this will be much slower however, if everything works then it means that the bug is spefic for your GPU/Driver and you should report the bug to your GPU vendor instead.

On Linux/macOS, Official releases come with blender-softwaregl
On MS-Windows: Download this dll and copying it so its located in the same directory as 'blender.exe' and run Blender normally.

Hi,

Nothing changed with the opengl32.dll.
However, I couldn't say if the Intel graphical drivers are up to date (it's a company computer and I'm not admin on it).

Tkx for the answer, I will wait for august, and maybe take a 2.8 rocket.
