When starting Pro Tools, upon loading the plugins, a VEP 5 instance (latest version) automatically starts and tests/searches the plugin folders for changes. After it is done with the search, a small window stays open and Pro Tools crashes with the following error message (on my Win7Pro machine):

This happens on both Win7Pro and Win10Pro (both updated to the current version). Not a problem anymore, when I uninstall VEP 5 / Vienna Instruments.
On both systems, the current version fo VEP 6 is installed, too.
This crash did not happen with previous versions of Pro Tools 12 as far as I remember, so maybe, there is an incompatabilty with the latest PT12-Version?
Please advise, what to do, I'd really like to get back my Vienna Instruments...
Kind regards
