It primarily happens when working in the SCL Editor or online via Watch Tables. My release is: V12.00.00.00_33.29.00.01. I am currently running on a clean dedicated Windows XP installation inside Oracle Virtualbox. I have tried with a Windows 7-64bit as well, but it seemed to be a lot slower.

Hello Jorsal, Am not sure if this update can help you - Updates for STEP 7 V12 and WinCC V12 All what you can do is, first find out the occurence (based on your working experience with TIA Portal) on when the software crashes. Once you are able to locate it then try to perform the operation which you desire using some work around. In this way I have minimized the crashes by taking diversions then and there I know this is not the right way to handle it. But you can also contact the Industry Online Support via Support Requestso that they can support you. If its a known case, they can suggest suitable; whereas if it is not known, then it can berectified in future SPs / Updates.

I think I have found a reason for my unstable TIA environment: I used to work on a TIA project on a network drive (not a real network drive, as it was simply a shared folder on my host machine), but still somehow a network drive. Since I moved the project to the C: drive instead, I haven't had any crashes.

I would always work off the "local" drive @Jorsal (that being the actual VM HDD you configured). There are many places where software has a bit of a problem with Network Drives, and it's not just Siemens.
