v1.8.5 crashing, v1.8.4 working

[jitauto]

Let me know if there are crash logs that could be helpful. I realize I'm not giving much, but it just closes with no error.

[Sudburr]

Running 1.8.5 in a Windows Console Host (CMD or POWERSHELL 5.x) works.
In Terminal via Powershell 7.3.9 ... won't run at all
In Terminal via Powershell 5.x or CMD sometimes works, sometimes causes terminal window to close

[UniverseCitiz3n]

Yeah, I've got the same behaviour...in Terminal it crashes without any errors (both 1.8.5 and 1.8.4).
In plain PowerShell or CMD works fine.

[thomasjsweet]

1.8.4 and 1.8.5 both crash. I have spend 20 min trying wrap Chrome. PowerShell admin worked the last time though I keep trying cmd, terminal, PS 5.1, etc. Today was the longest I spent trying to get a file. I do it the same exact way each time, and sometimes it works.

I can't post a log because I lose the window closes. Event viewer shows logs below, maybe these will help the team working on this.

It crashes for me even under PowerShell, though in my case it did seem to create the .intunewin file first before crashing.

[thenamelessthing]

I was about to come and check for a more recent version than 1.8.4 because it crashes 2 out of 3 times. But seeing this post, I understand that it's still not fixed...

[Smith-Rick]

Same Issue

[markdall]

If you go back a few versions (more than one, less than 5) you get back to a version that functions properly.

[AxelGauliard]

+1 same to me on a Win 11 23H2 system.
@Sudburr approving your tests with the old and new terminal.

Tip: If you don't want to change your default Terminal Engine to Windows Console Host, you can manually run conhost.exe and run IntuneWinAppUtil.exe there.

[PaulRosenfeld]

Any word on a fix for this? My PS script is broken.

For others, you can manually run the tool successfully in CMD by specifying the full path for every parameter.

Running from conhost.exe worked for me as a workaround on Windows 11, crashing on 1.8.5 from Windows Terminal.

Given that what ought to be a sev 1 pri 0 crashing bug has been sitting here since last November, I'm going to go ahead and assume that this project is dead. I hope the people who made it weren't laid off.
