I was loading a really simple project(file is attached) and it failed to load
and crashed, then I opened that file again(directly by clicking on it) and it
again crashed.
I opened octave GUI by clicking on its icon, which also crashed!!
notice that until now I was only using GUI version and octave CLI is working
fine.
uninstalling and reinstalling it was sometimes successful and it could run
fine(sometimes) until I opened that faulty file and the process repeated GUI
crashes etc...
so I guess it has something to do with the catch of octave GUI (maybe it opens
the recent file on startup)

by removing everything on this path(%APPDATA%/octave) octave GUI will run
without problems so... I guess kinda solved it IDK.
