Every time I switch from Texture paint to Object mode Blender shuts down. Anyone know a fix.

    It sounds like a bug most likely. 

    Assuming you are using 2.8 , I would go to Blender.org and download the latest version. They are in the release candidate stage now and I think they are at RC2 . By this stage it should be about as stable as it is going to get so if your issue is a bug then the chances are it has been fixed.

    Thanks.. I downloaded the latest release and that's when it started.  I'll keep at it and wait for the final release.

    Does this issue happen when switching from Texture Paint Mode to Object mode on the default cube? I'm wondering if there's something specific to your scene or app-wide.

    It happened switching from Texture Paint Mode to Object mode in 2.8 when texturing the Treasure chest boards and metal in the tutorial. It did it intermittently so I just kept restarting until I finished.
