Codex crashed with the following error:
(code=3221225781, signal=null).
Most recent error: None
Some things to try:
Check your config.toml for invalid settings
Check your settings to disable running in WSL if you are seeing compatibility issues
Try downloading a different version of the extension
Click reload to restart the Codex extension, or visit our documentation for additional help.
I am still getting the same.

Did a quick search of the GitHub OpenAI Codex issues .
I was able to fix this issue by installing the Visual C++ Redistributable from Microsoft: “vc_redist.x64.exe”
After installing it on Windows 11, the program ran successfully without any errors.
