v2.26.0 fails to start with return code -1073741569 (0xC00000FD)

Context:

Windows 11 25H2

ARM processor

Frescobaldi v4.0.5

LilyPond v2.26.0

 

Running Frescobaldi, I added the new LilyPond v2.26.0 (stable) and attempted
engraving this -

 

\version "2.26.0"

{ c' }

 

But it exits with this error message -

 

Starting lilypond.exe 2.26.0 [testscore.ly]...

Exited with return code -1073741569.

 

With the same environment if I switch to LilyPond v2.24.4 this engraves
without any issues -

 

\version "2.24.0"

{ c' }

 

Really enjoy LilyPond and just trying to stay current, v2.24.4 works for me
but of course time marches on.

 

Thanks,

Steve
