I can reproduce this problem at will. I have an external drive (connected via USB). Whenever I cut a file from my C drive and try to paste it to my external drive, Tracker crashes. When I restart, the file has been moved, seemingly without problems.

Tried every possible combination onto a USB drive and a virtual encrypted volume -- no problem. Anything special about your computer, your external drive, or your shell?
EDIT: how do you cut and paste, with keyboard or drag'n'drop or context menu?

Windows 2000 box. C drive is NTFS. External drive is FAT32.
Right click on file to move. Select 'cut' menu item.
Right click on destination directory on external drive (in left pane). Select 'paste' menu item. Crash.

Hmmm. Just tried the same thing from 'My Documents' to 'C:'. Same thing - crash. Tried 'copy' and 'paste'. It crashes, too. Tried both 'cut' and 'paste' from 'C:' to 'C:\temp' (in left pane). Crash. Same with copy&paste.

So it's not the external drive. What else could be messing it up?

Here it comes again, my standard reply:
Generally, crashes after opening TrackerV3's context menu have always (ie since TrackerV3 exists) proved to have been caused by poorly written custom shell software or other software mocking with the shell's context menus.
Why now do Explorer and various replacements sometimes appear more tolerant than TrackerV3 to this stuff? Because the stuff was written to work under Explorer, and many replacements just build a nice skin around Explorer's core functionality. TrackerV3 is different: here everything is hand-made from scratch. It's not an Explorer clone!
