Hello,
I'm currently running Beta version 22.10.0102. and I'm still running into a bug that happens with the following.
After I create a New Folder, then try to rename or paste a name from the clipboard, XYplorer crashes. This doesn't happen every time, but usually after I create 2 or 3 other new folders using the same procedure. This also happens in the last production version. I run into this crash bug constantly.

We strongly recommend adding your Windows Version and Screen Scaling Percentage to the Location field in your Profile or to your Signature. That way, you only have to type them once, and we won't have to search for that vital information.

Tick this
Configuration | General | Menus, Mouse, Usability | Context Menus | [x] Hide shell extensions from shell context menu
Does it still happen afterwards?

Ok, I've made the change and updated to beta version 22.10.0202. Will test through today and will post an update.

Re: New Folder Copy and Paste Bug
The change did not fix the behavior. I just created a new directory and then attempted to paste the name of the directory into the text field and XYplorer crashed. I'm still using version 22.10.0202.

Re: New Folder Copy and Paste Bug
Can you show a screenshot of the menu right before you click the "Paste" command?

Screen capture of what it looked like right before the last crash. I would try to paste the text to the folder field and the crash occurs.

Re: New Folder Copy and Paste Bug
Thanks, but what I wanted to see was the menu featuring that Paste command.
