Sharepoint Designer 2013 crashes when I publish a workflow with a approval process action

Question

From a few days I can no longer publish with the SharePoint Designer old and new Workflows that contain a simple approval process Action, like this

->    Start Approval (7) process on Current Item with Alessandro Cosi

I am now receiving this error when attempting to publish:

An error occurred while trying to fetch data from your Sharepoint site.

I checked, in the site web.config file the below entry was already present <serviceHostingEnvironment aspNetCompatibilityEnabled=”true” /> under <system.serviceModel> — Alessandro Cosi, Commented Oct 10, 2014 at 14:35
try this link windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/… and open the event viewer and check all categories around the time it crashed...any other information / error you suspect which will help us to determine the root cause... — Waqas Sarwar MVP, Commented Oct 10, 2014 at 14:38
