Lightroom crashing

[MarkB 65]

Have a very frustrating Lightroom that seem to want to crash every time you use an adjustment brush . Was doing with ver 5.3 but thought I'd see if 5.4 fixed it as one of the bugs - but no - still crashes. Tells me it's the cameraraw.dll module that is at fault.
A good google has come up with nothing so far and I could really do with it back working. Have PS cc but prefer to do my base adjustments in LR first.
Any clues anyone??

Have you tried a full un-install and re-install rather than an upgrade?

Maybe it's a dodgy file.... probably not.. but no harm in trying...

Here's a copy of CameraRaw.dll from my 5.4.

Failing that.. I'd remove it, and then manually remove all folders that refer to it... and do a registry sweep for unused stuff using something like CCleaner (free BTW) and then re-install.

Thought about a fresh install but I can't find my licence key to re install - will try that dll of your though thanks.... After I've finished cooking Sunday dinner for 12 !!
