software crash with GPA 2017 R4

[Laurent_C_1]

Hello,

I'm using an Alienware laptop and using Graphics performance analyzer 2017 R4 makes some software (outlook 2016, windows 10 search) crash.

I don't have any problem when Graphics Monitor is not started.

Is there a workaround for that ?

Here is my configuration:

Hey Laurent,

Are you trying to profile these applications? We currently are unable to profile Microsoft* applications or any core Windows* processes. If you are not profiling them, do you have global injection turned on when these applications crash?
