LYX crash - SIGFPE signal caught

HI

I'm using LYX 2.3 version on Win.
When I try to save my document, I get an error popup: "LYX crashed! SIGSPF signal caught! Bye".

What can I do to fix this?

Thanks

Sorry - the message is "LYX crashed! SIGFPE signal caught! Bye".

Welcome to the forum!

SIGFPE refers to a floating-point exception, so an arithmetic error. No clue yet why it happens in the moment of saving though.

Do you use the latest version 2.3.2, or still 2.3.0 or 2.3.1? You could upgrade. Some bugs related to crashes have been fixed in 2.3.2.
