    My IDL version is 8.7.3 and I am using windows 10 system. My IDL often shuts itself down without any warning or error message while the program is running on IDL. I could not find any error log information on windows event viewer. Other softwares like matlab on my desktop do not seem to have such issues. Is there any other information that I should provide?

    It's hard to say what the issue might be if it is just crashing randomly while running your code. Is the crash 100% reproducible (i.e. happens every time), or is it more random? Does you code involve rending many graphical items?

    You might find IDLDE to be more stable if you launch it with the outofprocess flag to separate the IDL and Java processes. To do this, run it through the Windows Command Prompt like this: C:\Program Files\Harris\IDL87\bin\bin.x86_64\idlde.exe -outofprocess
