    Same problem here, this bug came out for the first time after I have update Unity from Unity5.6.2 to Unity 2017.1.0f3 personal.
    It crash randomly, sometimes I can work for 3 hours without crash and sometimes for 30 minutes.

    Yes, still happening in Unity 2017.1.0f3, I'm using Windows 10, happens everyday but very random, usually after updating a .cs file and then going back to Unity Editor, sometimes it happened when I just kept open the editor for a few hours while I'm doing something else on the computer, when I came back to the editor it will crash with "Callback registration failed kMaxCallback"

    The same issue for me was faced in Unity 2017.1.0f3 on Mac OS 10.12.6. Previously it was worked perfectly in Unity 5.6. It's very bad stuff and as far as I can see it's often reproducible after clicking the "Play" button in editor. You just trying to check some changes and the issue appears. As result all changed data is missed...

    Crash log from 2017.1.0f3 when this error happened but the popup did not even show up and Unity just crashed: https://pastebin.com/Ciy211sy

    It happened after I moved two scripts between folders in the Project window in Unity.

    Happens to me quite often, tho sometimes there's not even any error message. Wonder if its even the same issue. Seems to happen randomly. There have been a few days with no crashes but many days when they would happen very frequently. Noticed that many of the crashes occurred right after changing a file in Visual Studio, then immediately pressing Play in the editor.
