Crash after adding material

Hello

I added 2 materials and now every time I open "3D and material" window the entire program crashes. I renamed the two materiala (but I don't know if Illustrator did a copy somewhere) but no help.

What to do?

I solved myself.

1) Search for the dir containing ".sbsar" files (the materials)

2) Every material has an associated PNG file, they where of 0 byte size. I believe this casued the crash

3) Removed the PNG and restarted Illustrator

4) Now I can see the two PNG are correctly created (size bigger than 0)

5) I open material and the SW doesn't crash

On Win the materials are under "C:\Users\YOURNAME\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Substance\Adobe Illustrator"
