Like everyone else Netgear Genie crashes. I spent some time going through the community files and these problems go back years. Whilst there have been various fixes suggested, people continue reporting the same problems. I would encourage Netgear and they do appear to read this forum to tell us how and when this problem will be fixed. Netgear the floor is yours!

Nope. Works here.
If you are referring to the desktop genie for Windows, Netgear has a habit of sneaking out new versions without telling us. It certainly does not provide an automated update process.
So from time to time I go and get the latest version:
genie Landing Page | Apps | Discover | Home | NETGEAR
Sadly I am using the latest version and I have even tried past fixes which reverted to earlier drivers. Looking through other posts on the community site, there are a lot of users who are and have been experiencing similar problems for a long time.
