If I understand, the problem is simply that these folders do not
exist in the USER directory. So when we try to save something there,
it fails.
That should not be the problem. The directories and their contents
need
to be in the _system_ directory (wherever that is on Windows). Nothing
needed in the user directory, unless a user wants to add their own
templates.
But copying the system tabletemplates directory *with its contents*
to the user directory does solve the problem, at least on my system.
An empty tabletemplates folder in the user directory still causes a
crash.
That is very weird.
Can you give me the recipe again? I can try creating a user directory
without those directories on Linux, and see what happens here.

I wanted formal tables to be the default table style. Hence Documents
> Settings > Text Layout > Table Style and I changed the Default
setting to Formal without Footline, then clicked OK. When I then
clicked on the Insert Table button and tried to insert a table, I got
the crash.
As I say in another message, I also do not have those directories, on
Linux. But I don't get the crash. Still, it's obvious that they're not
being there has something to do with the crash. What's weird is that the
contents have to be there, too. Generally speaking, LyX looks in various
places for files: first the user directory, then the system directory,
and it uses the first one it finds.
