Come on.... - Patching to V2.3.5 at own risk
Bad news. The newest two patches can cause some serious issues to your GameMaker Ide.
I already made a video on the last patch they braught in and checked all the follwing ones (V2.3.4++). All didn't work and rendered the ide into a unstable state.
So I made a ticket and they help desk said that my case is rare (which I cannot disprove, I have no metrics) and that the newest iteration V2.3.5++ should fix this issue for good. Okay, fair enough, I waited for the V2.3.5 patch. Which is this current patch.
So has it been fixed? No, not at all. This is very disappointing but I guess that is how the cookie crumbles.
Will this affect your GameMaker version? I cannot tell because most had no issue when patching it up. Worst case you simply uninstall and install the previous version 2.3.3 that runs stable, video found here:

This current patch is 2.3.5.589 and patch notes are found here:
