Dolphin Crashing for Unknown Reason - MumenRider - 10-14-2016

Hello all, I'm not new by any means to the emulation community and am not even a stranger to using Dolphin.
Some time ago I uninstalled the older version of Dolphin I had and last night decided to go ahead and install the new 5.0 version to play some Smash.
Got everything working the first time I opened the game, even had my xbox controller hooked up and configured - all in all no problems.

When I closed the game I just hit the "x" in corner and I got a warning message saying something along the lines of "stop emulation?" to which I ignored and continued closing.

Half an hour later I open up the emulator again and go to start up Brawl and get hit in the face with an error message and Dolphin just crashes and closes. Every single time it says "windows is checking for a solution to this problem" and just closes.
So then I decide to try a different game to see if that at least works and it does.. until I close out of it the same way I did with Brawl and now that game crashes the emulator too every time I try and load it up. :/

This morning I tried uninstalling Dolphin and then re-installing and that made no difference.

I'm just really confused here. I ran Twilight Princess before without much in the way of problems.
If anyone has any advice or knows what I did wrong please help me out Tongue

Here is a picture of what's going down.
Again, the game played fine the first time I opened it, after I x'ed out for the first time and went back later is when I started running into this.

The only solution left I can think of is deleting the game data and re-downloading maybe, and that still wouldn't tell me why this is happening :/

If it runs the first time, it could be the shadercache issues on Intel HD graphics cards. But you say that you have a NVIDIA in the profile, so that shouldn't happen.

It could be a corrupt shader cache, try clearing the cache and try again

Downloading games is against the rules.
