Sudden crash after refreshing folder
Describe the bug I changed icon of one folder, then refreshed the folder and Explorer++ suddenly crashed. I don't know exact circumstances how the crash was able to happen, but I will attach .dmp file here.
Version:
- Explorer++ version 1.5.0.2604 dev (64-bit build) | Build date: Mar 21 2025 19:32:25
- OS: Windows 7
Attached files Explorer++1.5.0.2604-23032025-034900.zip
It looks like it crashed because copying the icon failed. Does this happen consistently whenever you change the folder icon and refresh? I tried a few times on Windows 7 and couldn't reproduce the issue.

No icon files were copied at all. I meant I was changing icons in Folder properties > Customize > Folder icons and refreshed page and then Explorer++ crashed.
To clarify, the tab control needs to copy the icon for a folder from the system image list, so that it can display it. It's that copy that failed. The crash dump doesn't give enough information to determine why it failed, only that it did. It could be something legitimate, like a memory allocation failure, but given the very small amount of data that needs to be copied, it's probably some other issue. Does Explorer++ consistently crash if you perform the same steps?
