Normal programs cannot cause drivers to crash. Normal programs can at most trigger a bug in a driver.

As the cause for this crash is in the driver, you need to contact your driver vendor for assistance.

I installed a previous version of your program and it works fine. Thanks anyway.

This is not a bug in FileZilla.

Internet is full of complain about this issue...
Crash of filezilla or crash of driver.

This is a bug in your graphics card driver. Normal programs such as FileZilla cannot cause driver crashes, they can only trigger crashes in _faulty drivers_. Contact your display driver vendor for assistance.

It is the message log. Turning it off will stop Filezilla from sending bad instructions to the display driver. I mean, turning it off will stop the display drivers from magically being bad since this has nothing to do with Filezilla apparently even though earlier versions work fine.

Ok. I'd like to give it a try. Could you provide some info regarding how you turned the message log off. I can't seem to find anything on message log in google.

Thanks! Closing message log solved the problem.

Thanks! Closing message log solved the problem.

It didn't solve the problem. The problem can only be solved by contacting your driver vendor and installing a fixed driver. You merely worked around the problem.

I have the same problem that can't possibly exist because we all have faulty display drivers and the problem certainly couldn't be the only program we all have in common and the only one on my computer that causes my "faulty" driver to crash.

Unchecking the message log has "worked around" the buggy programming that caused the original problem.

I was having the same problem with Filezilla 3.9.0.6 running on my Windows 7 64bit with Service Pack 1 installed. After reading this thread, I checked to see if I could upgrade my Dell Inspiron graphics driver. It's the Intel HD Graphics "Family". After using Windows to check to see if there was a more recent display driver, it came back and send latest was already installed. So, I went to the Intel web site and it looks like there is a more recent driver (Oct 2014), but that may not have any updates with regards to my hardware. So, I downloaded it just in case for later. In the mean time, I have disabled my Message Log as instructed here. Kudos to Filezilla for having an open forum for troubleshooting. However, it would have been nice if they would have accepted some responsibility for troubleshooting here.

Just wanted to report that version 3.10.0.1 fixed the issue with display driver. The message log can be turned back on again without any errors.

Thanks.
