Hi I'm having a lot of trouble with S4Studio compatible versions of Blender. 2.70 and 2.76 both seem to close as soon as they're minimized and at times randomly. I'm unsure of what to do and I've tried resetting user preferences, running in compatibility mode. Is there anyone with a similar problem that managed to fix it? For now I've been working on 2.80 but obviously it's not ideal on a permanent basis.
Edit for anyone who is having a similar problem and does not have an AMD driver, moving "WinTab32.dll" out of System32 fixed the problem for me!

I found that AMD users have this issue. Also, I would really suggest searching it on Blender support forums since this is where users with problems with Blender post their questions and get responses. For example this thread says that this issue was patched in 2.78 and 2.79, and that it is an issue with AMD drivers.

Hi, I've been searching for a solution for a few days and stumbled across that thread too, however I am not an AMD user, I'm an NVIDIA user and 2.78 gave me the same issues. Another solution I found was to use the zip versions of the program and again no luck with it. Also since 2.79 works for me (I still have 2.70 installed since I can't export without it) I tried adding the Sims 4 Studio Blender Tools script but I received this error?

Still it is most likely a problem with GPU drivers.

Still it is most likely a problem with GPU drivers. I agree and I understand but I'm really unsure on how to solve this, if S4S only works with versions of Blender that are majorly problematic for me.

Then solution is to use whatever version works for you and keep another one in Studio settings. This is what I and many other users do. I just keep a few versions of Blender. There is something in higher versions like 2.78 and 2.79 that prevent Studio from working with Blender. It is what it is. Again, if Blender crashes then you need to look for an answer on their support forums, update drivers etc.

Try updating or reinstalling GPU drivers first. I bet this will be their first advice. Regarding no Studio plugin in 2.79. Studio instals plugin when you set the path to 2.79 in Studio settings, restart and export mesh. If it exports an empty file in 2.79 then you have the same problem as I and some other people do. On my machine I can't make Studio work with 2.78 and 2.79, some people can.
