Source control version 7.1.30.11266 crashing SSMS 18.6

Good morning,

Source control version 7.1.30.11266 is crashing in SSMS 18.6 on startup of SSMS. I upgraded from the previous version.

I found that using the uninstaller to repair the install fixed the issue. But this is the first time such a crash has happened from an upgrade in some time. Below is the screenshot, and then the recommended error file.

  • Same problem here.  Thanks @jsreynolds1 for the fix - running the uninstaller and then choosing Repair solved it.

    Hi, thank you for the forum post and sorry that you have encountered this problem.

    I also encountered this problem upgrading from V7.1.29 to V7.1.30 on my test system.  I have therefore submitted a new Bug Report whose internal Redgate reference is SOC-10149.  I will update this forum post when a bug fix version becomes available.

    I can confirm that the work around for the problem is the a repair of the installation via Control Panel ->Programs ->Programs & Features ->Selecting SQL Source Control V7, right click and selected the repair option.  Thank you @jsreynolds1for this additional information.

    Many Thanks
    Eddie

    Same here.  Repairing seems to have resolved that problem. 
    But then if I click SQL Source Control "Options", I get the SQL Source Control error "Cannot locate resource 'images/producticon16x16_fullcolour.png'.", and SSMS 18.6 (15.0.18338.0) crashes.
    Event Viewer shows this exception:

    I had exactly the same problem Rick. Clicking options (either on main page, or button top right) would cause that error and crash SSMS.

    I tried many things (including installing an older version then updating) but nothing stopped it happening with this version. I now consider this latest release to be broken.

    Instead, I installed my latest version from my downloads folder (which was 7.1.26 I think), and left it as is (e.g., not updating to 7.1.30). I'll wait for next version - and not delete my old installer.

    Note that I couldn't find a place to download the previous version on here - I had to rely on my previous downloads only.
  • FYI - It appears that 7.1.31 resolves this issue.

    FYI - Still getting the "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation." error with 7.3.31.15722. This needs to be resolved.

    i also have  7.3.31.15722 and trying to link to GIT.  If I pick the directory, the link window just closes.  If I paste the path into the Folder, it crashes SSMS.  Any help would be much appreciated. I have already uninstalled Source Control and reinstalled it.  I also tried repairing it.  I also have someone working with me that already had it linked and the database says it is retrieving differences and never finishes.  (after hours of leaving it working)
