Could you give more detail: - are you running in the default MDI mode (one big window containing the console, editor, etc.) or SDI mode (separate windows)? - does it matter what was in the file you opened?

Here's how I can reproduce this bug, running under MDI under WinXP 1) start Rgui 2) open a script window using File>New script 3) click back in the console window and open a help window (e.g. by typing "?merge") in the console window 4) click in the close box of the help window 5) click in the close box of the script window (which was visible even though the script window was largely behind the console window) 6) click on the File menu ..........CRASH!!! "R for Windows GUI front-end has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."

P.S. I should have added that this crash occurred when the MDI toolbar was OFF.
