My crash log shows:

System.NotSupportedException: The requested security protocol is not supported.
at System.Net.ServicePointManager.ValidateSecurityProtocol(SecurityProtocolType value)
at Launcher.LauncherApplication..ctor(SplashScreen splashinit, LauncherOptions options)
at Launcher.Bootstrap.Main(String[] args)

So apparently this is related to .NET 4.0 and .NET 4.5. If you're running on a system with only .NET 4.0 then you'll see this crash. Simple fix: install .NET 4.5 (you can keep .NET 4.0 and simply install .NET 4.5 on top).

I am guessing something changed with the most recent build, because I have never had this crash before today.

Check your installed programs and see which .NET version you are using. If you do not have .NET 4.5 that could be the reason. I too was having no issues until suddenly tonight Windower just kept crashing upon loading the program.

GitHub updated their API and no longer allows TLS1.1 connections:

https://developer.github.com/changes/2018-02-01-weak-crypto-removal-notice/

As a result, our launcher as is would not populate addons. We confirmed functionality on Win 7 and 10 before pushing it live, but limited testing doesn't recreate every environment. If you're having this issue, install .NET 4.5.

If you are on XP (still? for some reason...?) there may be a fix a bit further off.

I humbly suggest the fix being an operating system upgrade.
