System Information
Operating system: Win 10 Pro version 1903 OS Build 18362.239
Dell Latitude E6530, Intel I7-3520-3520M 2.9HHz, 16 GB RAM
Graphics card: None.

Blender Version
Broken: V2.80.75 Also failed with 2.8 release candidate 3

Short description of error
Blender stops responding when a material is added

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Launch blender
On splash screen under new file select 2D Animation
select material tab
select + (add material slot)
Select new (this is where it stops responding)

I tried monitoring Task Manager while this happened.

No increase in memory usage
No CPU usage being recorded
2 blender processes, Blender (253MB) and Console Window host (6.6MB)

I've tried to draw something first then add material. That does not seem to matter.
I am very new to blender and will not be offended if this is just a matter of idiot behind the wheel.

Regards,
JJ

In general no such a bugs, however this is one of the bug often users faced...

Try, may can you fix it..

Make sure you graphics drivers are up-to dates.
Try Load Factory Setting & Save Startup File

Moreover, some of the prob can be easily fixed at community level (one of the community sites) e.g. https://blender.chat/channel/support. Please try and let we know.

The operating system, main memory size, GPU brand and model, GPU driver version and Blender hash or its build date may be needed by developers to investigate this issue

This issue is already reported from other users, to try mitigate your issue, upgrade your GPU drivers to latest availble from Intel site, however Intel HD Graphics 4000 GPU and older not meet minimum Blender requirement
