Description

Sorry to bother you,

But, recently whenever I attempt to open a .tmx or even open Tiled normally (from the Windows Menu) the window shows up white, waits for 3-5 seconds and closes (don't use that exactly). I attempted reinstalling Tiled, with no luck, I've rebooted my computer, and I can't think of anything else.

Some specs that I could give you would be:
OS: Windows 10 Pro
Version: 1803
Processor:
Manufacturer: Intel
Core: i5-3450
Installed RAM: 8 GB (7.89 usable)
64-bit

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure on Windows 10, both when opening a .tmx file and when launching Tiled from the Windows menu. Investigate why the window becomes white and closes after 3–5 seconds; done means identifying the cause and preventing the crash or documenting the required diagnostic information.
