Hi Josh,

Did you install any software in the machine recently?

According to the log "Faulting application name: gui.exe" and it belongs to the "Bullzip".I recommend you to reinstall the Bullzip to have a check ?

Best regards

Hi Josh,

"I reinstalled bullzip to the latest version before it crashed."
Do you mean you have tried to reinstall the bullzip to resolve the issue or it crashed after we performed a reinstallation.There is a possibility the installation of the software has corrupted .

"Recently, one of my user encounter PDF and Chrome crashes whenever she attempts to save or to open a pdf document."
Will the issue only occur when we try to open an  PDF file from the Chrome online or  even occur when we open a local pdf file  ? This will help us to troubleshoot whether it is caused by the browser.

If it only occurred online ,please try to use another browser to have a check .If that is the issue ,you may need to look for help from the Chrome browser forum for help.

If it occurred with the local files .How many PDF browser do we have ?
We can check the present pdf file association and try to recreate the file association to have a check.
Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Default Programs\ Associate a file type or protocol with a program.
Apart from this ,we should check the registry at the same time.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts

Best regards
