No

Doesit crash immediately? Is it pgAdmin or the plugin that crashes? 

Well the postgis-gui plugin is compiled with mingw64 and is  the one distributed with PostGIS 2.2 one (not that it
matterssince that code has not changed in a while). I have to test this myself.  My friend was using a Windows 7 32-bit
andthe screen she showed me, it gave some sort of VC++ debug error before it crashed (so doesn't seem like it is
crashingin the plugin though the error does suggest that) 
As I recall, I think she got as far as the PostGIS-GUI (shp2pgsql-gui) showing her the list of tables and it was when
sheproceeded to export was when it crashed. 
Again I'll have to check this for myself, since she only sent me a screen shot.  Attached is the screen shot she sent
me. She said when she uninstalled 1.22 and reinstalled 1.20 things were okay. 
I usually just use the shp2pgsql command line since it's more efficient for larger tables and I can script it.

Thanks,
