Follow-up Comment #3, bug #37623 (project octave):
You didn't install Octave in a directory path containing spaces, did you?
(like "C:\Program Files(x86)" ) because that is a receipe for trouble.
Another possibility is that this is another manifestation of the notorious
libblas versions issue with the MinGW builds.
This is known to turn up in completely unexpected and unpredictable places and
usually it's in no way related to the actual error message (if any).
Have a look at bug #37231 and bug #35769.
I had the impression this was hardware (architecture)-dependent but I wouldn't
be surprised if SW-platform (operating system level) may be involved as well.
What you can do to find a reliable libblas.dll:
In <OCTAVE_INSTALL_DIR>/bin there should be various versions of
libblas..........dll.
Please backup the file libblas.dll and then, for each libblas......dll in
turn, rename it to libblas.dll, restart Octave and try again.
In my case the Octave command:
demo plotyy
used to trigger crashes reliably.
