I’m new to creating a new project on Windows (after all these years), so I don’t know if this is very old or relatively new.
Create a new Project
Add a ToolBar
Add a DropDown Button to the Toolbar
Remove the Caption
Select “Browse” from the Icon popup menu
Open a folder with a lot of PNG files (530 in my case)
Windows file dialog spins and reports “I’m working on it”
After 30 seconds or so, the IDE crashes hard
Cute
This module faulting, for whatever reason that I cant discern, might explain why I can do this exact thing with 6x as many images as you noted you had
I’ll mark this as closed. My system had a looped symlink and the crash was due to infinite recursion of the link pointing to the parent folder.
According to Microsoft I should not have been able to do this - until I shared that I was sharing the Windows folder with an OS X system via SMB/CIFS sharing. The answer was “Oh, yes, Apple does a lot of non-POSIX things with their folder handling.”
