I was also getting crashes but while installing the content Manager

I did report as per: [Installation #OSH-851574]: XWD 9 Premium crashed and other issues

Reply from Customer Care of XARA:

Have you been able to successfully install the content pack now?

If not, please uninstall Web Designer from your computer then download the latest installation file from the link below
www.xara.com/downloads/webdesigner

Once yo uinstall that, unlock the software and then select Install Content Pack from the Help menu. The issues which you had originally installing the content pack was resolved and we released new patch updates today which include this fix.


Kind regards,
CS
