BetterDiscord randomly crashes very often after the last update

Error in the console: Error: Menu API only allows Items and groups of Items as children.

I have no themes and no plugins I alredy have the new asar file that should fix it, but it doesn’t (https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/826217269323235358/1079920833662816277/betterdiscord.asar) (https://github.com/BetterDiscord/BetterDiscord/actions/runs/4290243389)

Expected Behavior

Interact with the application in any way or just wait a bit

Operating System

Windows

Discord Version

Trying to open settings or update plugins causes a crash for me too.

This issue has been resolved. The installer doesn’t seem to download the latest version of BD yet, but you can install the fix manually.

Here’s how to install the fix manually:

Close Discord and head to https://github.com/BetterDiscord/BetterDiscord/actions/runs/4290243389
Download the betterdiscord.asar (which will be a zip)
Extract it to %appdata%\BetterDiscord\data (C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Roaming\BetterDiscord\data), overwriting the previous one
Re-open Discord
