    A little checklist:

    • Try in new scene.
    • Report Bug.
    • Reinstall unity
    • Check GPU driver.

    I'm guessing this message means that there is a shader called SceneViewWireframe which is usually hidden, the editor is trying to use it, but your GPU has reported the shader can't run on your machine. What are the specs of your machine? OS and GPU at least.

    i found what's causing the crash... its the Graphics Emulation... it crashes when ES 1 and on scene view... i dont know why it crashes... ive been using ES 1 graphics emulation on my project all along and it was the only time it started crashing... After ive switched to ES 2 all was fine and okay.

    If anyone of you may experience this in the future i hope this might help...

    Thank you for the help. Spent several hours today trying to narrow down the problem.
    Here's how to switch to 2.0:

    Thank you very much indeed, binsint!
    I had switched my Android target to use ES1 for testing purposes and clicked on a plane in the editor -> crash.

    Ahhh thank you guys so much for figuring out the problem. I was just having the same exact issue that came out of nowhere. Switched to ES2 (no clue why it started crashing to begin with, but switching to ES2 fixed the problem for me as well).

    I was having a panic attack - afraid I was going to lose everything I've been working on.
