Help with AE CS6 error: crash in progress

Hello,

I get this error every time I try to create a new folder in the "output to" window in the render tab.

I've never ran into it prior to today.

The composition is a 12 second title with an animation preset - In Hebrew (if it matters for some reason).

I'm trying to render in mpeg2 with default settings but it happens even when trying other formats such as H.264, and the error occurs when attempting to create a new folder

The AE is part of my Production Premium CS6 and I'm using Windows 7 64bit Ultimate.

Anyone have an Idea of how to fix this error?

THank you,

Ariel
