Recently I've had some crashes in conhost.exe while TCC is executing
a "simple" text-search alias.

This is the WinDbg report from the last incident. First the modules:

Seems some illegal data to WriteConsole() is causing this.
This is the call-stack for the TCC thread that started this output

Has anybody seen such crashes before?
 
What version of TCC and/or TCMD are you using?

What are the contents of your TCC.exception.log?

Here's the file on my system,;
Code:

TCC ver. 30.0.22.

I have no such file. It was conhost.exe that crashed, not tcc.exe (it just seemed to hang waiting for conhost.exe).
 
What are your Wndows version, the command/alias that caused the crash, and your code page.
 
Conhost? That's weird. Do you have the same problem with cmd.exe ?
 
> What are your Wndows version, the command/alias that caused the crash, and your code page.

Win-10, version 22H2 (OS-build 19045.3324).

My Codepage is 865.
My alias ts is defined as (anybody remember Norton Utilities' program ts.exe; Text Search?):
ffind %3$ /VLSA /MT%2 %1

conhost crashed when issuing 'ts ..\cmake\* PYTHON_DEBUG_LIBRARY !
 
Gisle, are you using the "legacy" console? (Alt-Space ... Properties ... Options)
 
> Gisle, are you using the "legacy" console? (Alt-Space ... Properties ... Options)

Yes I had. Now after switching off Lecacy Mode, I've not seen the same crash again.
I used this mode since I had troubles with conhost and some ANSI issue.

Just now I had another conhost.exe crash running this tiptip.exe Python program from

So I'm worried it's something in TCC that causes this. And I'm not using the Legacy Console.
And this is how the process-tree looks like while WinDbg is blocking everything:

The 2nd instance of conhost.exe is Suspended (crashed).
And there are 7 threads in tcc.exe. Some waiting on conhost.exe.
