Do you have any additional information in Event Viewer? Like where it crashed etc. 

If previous version, 5.2.34, worked there, is it possible to get the output of Help > System Info from it.

Ok, here is event log:

Faulting application name: MySQLWorkbench.exe, version: 5.2.35.7915, time stamp: 0x4e7957cf

Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 5.2 CE\MySQLWorkbench.exe

5.2.34 crashed similarly

atioglxx.dll is a driver for a video card probably. Had you tried to update it? 

Also, please, try to start Workbench from command line with -swrendering option. I wonder if that will make any difference.

I did two recent installs of Win7 pro and I'm experiencing the same problem with one of the machines. I'm using the same version for both machines: 5.2.35 CE. I'm not sure what's different. Windows is updated on both.

I solved the problem by disabling my external graphics adapter. Strangely it still works when I re-enabled the graphics adapter.

I still need to know if updating drivers or running with -swrendering option helps.
