"error creating window handle"
Redgate is throwing an error that is costing a lot of our time to be wasted. I can link to source control no problem, but when I go to the commit tab, I see steps 1 through 4/4 complete, then I see the list of changes to check in, but this error pops up and after submitting the error report, the list of changes disappears. I have tried a lot of things and cannot get it to work. Here is what I tried:
Unlink redgate
Close SSMS
Delete entire directory -> C:\Users\AlbersM099\AppData\Local\Red Gate\SQL Source Control 5
Restart computer
Open SSMS
Link redgate
Get error
Additionally, I got it to link 1 time without the error, and it allowed me to commit the ComparisonOptions.xml file and that was it. I am now trying to link and commit the filter file, and the entire database. Also including a screen shot of the filter file options.

Another co-worker and I are having the same issue. We're using SSMS 2014 and Redgate SQL Source Control v 5.4.2.4269 trial.
