Crashing when trying to create a new project

This is with version 7.2.8.0 and a previous version was doing this as well.

When I go to File > New Project… > Create or even the New Project… button on the home tab, Pro Motion NG will crash on me. I would love to actually start using this software.

The software would hang for a while, freeze, then if I click anywhere, the main window will black out but the inner panels (Layers, Tools and Paint Settings, Home) will stay visible. If I click again, everything whites out and Windows (10) pops up with the crash.
