Latex Error: Command crashed: biber.exe
Just change the used filename for your bib file from \bibliography.bib
to bibliography.bib
. The \
starts a command \bibliography
causing your error.
The following MWE compiles with no errors with my current miktex:
\documentclass{article}
\begin{filecontents*}{bibliography.bib} % <================================
@book{john,
author = {John Johnson},
title = {Booktitle},
year = {2016}
}
\end{filecontents*}
\usepackage[backend=biber]{biblatex}
\addbibresource{bibliography.bib} % <================================
\begin{document}
Hello \cite{john}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}
A complete reinstall of MikTex was the solution for me. See also comments to the opening post.
