Question by Magnus Wolffelt · Aug 09, 2010 at 06:48 PM · errorgcfatal-error

Fatal error in gc: GetThreadContext failed (?)

Hi,

using Unity 3.0 beta 4/5, I get these a lot when changing projects, and sometimes when just doing random (I think) stuff in the editor. Any ideas why? And is there a workaround? Setting thread affinity to only one core seems to reduce the frequence a little maybe, but I'm not sure.

The Unity editor hangs indefinitely after displaying this popup, and it's quite problematic - I'm not able to change to the project I need to work on.

My machine: c2quad, 8 gb ram, win7 64-bit.

And btw, I have filed a bug report.. I'm mainly looking for a workaround so I can get something done.

I bought the Unity 3d Development by Example book and on page 129 it told me to copy windows fonts to unity project panel. It crashed Unity and now I cannot open unity. I get this message when I try. I have windows 7 64 bit and use ESET for virus protection.

I have this error too. I have Win 7 64 bit and Eset. If I show always the welcome window I get the error fewer times. I tried to add the folder of unity to the exclusion of eset but the error remain.

This error is very terrible!

have you tried : preferences -> show project wizard at startup. Workaround, but stopped $$anonymous$$e crashing. (providing you can get the program open in the first place that is..)

Try opening a scene file of your project from my computer. I have something like your problem in unity 2.6.1.

open Kaspersky and look in your application activity, in the monitored list, search for unity, it will show 4 programs, change all to "Trusted" that should work it out.

This error turned out to be due to having Kaspersky Antivirus 9.0 installed. I think UT is working on a fix/resolution.

Hi everybody, for you who have the ESET SMART SECURITY! 1) Open ESET 2) Press F5 3) Web and mail 4) Filtering protocols 5) Excluded apps and TICK (the box MUSTN'T be empty!) Unity Editor where you have installed it.
