Which installer did you use for Inkscape 0.91: 32bit or 64bit?

Possibly same issue with 64bit Inkscape 0.91 already tracked in

I did not really give a suggestion yet (I was just noting for the bug triage team that very likely the underlying issue is already tracked in an earlier report). We don't have a newer (fixed) 64bit build of Inkscape for Windows available yet. For users who installed the 64bit build of Inkscape 0.91 on Windows, a possible (though somewhat cumbersome) workaround might be to restrict usage of bitmap images to PNG format and to avoid importing other formats (GIF, TIFF, JPG, BMP, ...) within the same Inkscape session. Bitmap images in other file formats can be converted to PNG with tools e.g. like IrfanView or raster graphics editors like GIMP.

Could you attach an example TIFF image to this bug report which consistently triggers the crash when imported into a new document opened in a new Inkscape process? Which import settings do you use (embed or link, resolution from file or default)?

OK, thank you. I tried with several .tif images to import and all crashes before I get window with Image import. Also when I want to open images with open not every time but 2-3 crashes.
