I recently downloaded Godot on a new notebook i got and since the very first project i created godot kept crashing after trying to open a project. No errors, warnings or anything, it just opens for second in fullscreen mode and just crashes. I tried version 4.2.2, 4.2, and 4.0.0 and all didnt work. Here is a pic of the console before it crashes:
To do this, you either need to indeed open / create some (even empty) project and go to Editor → Editor Settings or, alternatively, open editor settings file directly (for me it resides at C:\Users\User\AppData\Roaming\Godot\editor_settings-4.tres)
For me it helped to disable loading scenes and scripts
