Meteor crashing a lot when developing

Is anyone else finding that Meteor is crashing a lot when developing? In recent weeks it has been happening more and more - the sort of message I get is:

Process finished with exit code -1073741819 (0xC0000005)

I develop on Windows 10 in WebStorm.

Any suggestions to prevent these crashes or to find out the reason for the crash is most welcome!

Only a suggestion, but it may be worth deleting your app’s package cache. This tends to grow very big over time, especially if you’ve updated meteor often. That may be causing build problems for you.

Open File Explorer and navigate to \path\to\yourproject\.meteor\local and delete the bundler-cache folder and all its contents. Meteor will re-create this and download what it needs for the current versions of packages.

Thank you! I deleted the bundler-cache and it hasn’t crashed since.
