I am having an issue wit hStudio 4.8 crashing when I try to delete things from scenes. If I try to delete a figure (ie Genesis 2) Stdio crashes as soon as I click delete. Seems to be ok on deleting objects or clothing items. Also I get crashes sometimes if I try to unparent and object from a Genesis figure.
Any ideas whats going on?

I haven't seen this, though I do have a faint memory of someone else reporting it. Are you on Mac or Windows? Which version?
Are these freshly created or saved scenes?
Windows 7 and saved scenes
Do you have the Reality plugin?
I do yes but I have not used it yet
Studio also crashes if I 'unpoint' a light, if I point a light at something else all is fine but if I go from pointing at something to pointing at 'none' this will cause Studio to crash. (all of these crashed have only started occuring since upgrading to 4.8)
Sounds like a plug-in at fault.
Disabling each third-party plug-in one at a time, and do a delete after each might identify the plug-in at fault. A thorough check would be to restart DAZ3D after disabling each plug-in before testing with a delete. I am not completely sure about DAZ3D but with some applications plug-in code can stay resident (and active) even after it is flagged as disabled, until the application is restarted.
I just tried disabling all third party plugins but still had the same problems
Checking your log file may give you an indication of what the problem is.
If you create a new blank scene and add just Genesis 2. Then delete Genesis 2 and it crashes, then I would try using DAZ Install Manager to first remove Genesis 2 and then re install Genesis 2.
If it does not crash for the above, then here are some links to other threads that may help:

They relate to missing objects referenced within the scene.
