I should note the crash happens on startup of Notepad++.

I'm sorry you're having this issue! I can't replicate this with my local installation, so my current questions are:

• Have you tried upgrading to the latest version of JsonTools? Some previously reported crash bugs were fixed by upgrading to a newer version of JsonTools.
• Have you had this issue with JsonTools on Windows 10 or 11? I suspect this issue may be related to the fact that you're using Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter, and while I'm currently in the process of trying to test that, I haven't done so yet. EDIT: I started a Windows Server 2012 R2 VM instance, installed a normal (AppData) installation of Notepad++ 8.6.4 and JsonTools v7.1, and I didn't observe any crashes or other unusual behavior.
