ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Thank you very much.

Comment 1 Waqar Ahmed 2023-10-17 04:43:35 UTC

Is there a newer version of Kate available on the store? or is this the latest available version?

Latest release is 23.08, you seem to be using 23.04. Unfortunately microsoft store's website doesn't show the available version of the package.

Comment 2 magiblot 2023-10-17 19:00:01 UTC

All I know is that the Microsoft Store is not currently offering me to upgrade to a newer version of Kate.

Comment 3 Christoph Cullmann 2023-12-29 17:45:10 UTC

I tried the current Windows store version and https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/Windows%2064-bit/job/Kate_Release_win64/2262/

Doesn't crash for me.

Kate session leading to the crash

> I tried the current Windows store version and https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/Windows%2064-bit/job/Kate_Release_win64/2262/

It still crashes for me, even in the currently most recent Kate from Jenkins (https://binary-factory.kde.org/view/Windows%2064-bit/job/Kate_Release_win64/2276/).

I realized that this is related to the last Session. In '%USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\kate\sessions' I had just one file, 'last.katesession'. If I remove or rename it, Kate becomes able to start. However, I have been unable to find out which part of the Session file causes the crash.

I am attaching this session file. Cristoph, could you please check if this allows you to reproduce the issue?

Thank you.

Let me remove the "RESOLVED" status for now. I am changing it to "REOPENED", but please correct me if I should set it to something else.

That's right. The problem were just the entries located in the 'F:' drive, which used to be a USB drive that is currently assigned to a different location. So, in my case, it was enough to replace all the occurrences of 'F:/' with 'D:/' in 'last.katesession' to avoid the crash.
