The "recent filters" cannot be cleared and the application always runs into an irrecoverable error!

I am trying to open the following table data.

Everytime I try, the application (HeidiSQL - 12.0.0.6468) runs into an irrecoverable error and I have no way to overcome it.

• The table had a different column structure since I last opened it.
• The recent filters are pointing to a column which no longer exists.
• I assume is the root cause of this.

I tried disabling the "Remember filters" option but it does not help.

v12.0 is outdated. Please update, which will also fix your issue. Newer versions display such SQL errors as a normal message, not as a crash dialog.
