Try renaming "C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\XBMC" then starting xbmc, once running you can copy back data from the renamed folder to the new .xbmc folder a little at a time restarting xbmc, hopefully you'll discover what it is crashing on

@Ardalista: Please revert to confluence and make sure it works then. You need to try and help debug by getting rid of some of the services you're running (e.g. next aired) and the like.

Thanks. Can you please try to comment out the mysql stuff and see if it works?
If it does, comment out only for music and only for video in turn, see if one of them is the problem only.
Thanks!

The srt files should be fine, the rar could be causing problems, I just mentioned subs since typically these are what arer in the rar files. Other than that you could try deleting the MySql stuff from advancedsettings and then scanning your library locally, then the logs may show what file xbmc is choking on.
