Description

User Feedback

Crash occurs whenever qgis goes to a windows explorer file picker window. UI stays interactive for a moment, and then freezes, then you get the crash message. - eg: layout : export as pdf, layout : image item properties : select image path, map : export as image, etc. Map : Open From crashes, but doesn't show the crash reporter window.

Clicking quickly to select or enter a filename before the crash doesn't work - still crashes

QGIS 3.4 installed via standalone worked fine for a few days (built map, numerous exports etc), then started the crashes preventing me from exporting my map. I installed the OSGeo4W version and for a time ran that successfully, then the crashes started there too.

Things I've tried:
Uninstalled, revo uninstaller to clean up registry, cccleaner for the same, deleted profile from user/APPDATA

1) Any advice of how to get qgis working properly (not crashing on export as pdf) or
2) Any way to export as pdf via a command line option that doesn't involve a file picker?

Below are a few different stack traces from different crashes in case thats helpful

Another stack trace, this time from map: export to pdf. Also, attached is a debugview log (though there were no messages between initiating the save as interface and the crash, so this may be of limited use

This almost certainly a local issue only - see #19962 for debugging steps for a similar crash caused by other software installed on the workstation.

Confirmed, followed the #19962 debugging steps. I used ShellExView to view and disable all non microsoft shell extensions, and then qgis worked properly. Thank you!

I had the same problem and it was solved using ShellExView. Same thing. I installed it, under Options - Hide All Microsoft Extensions. Then Control + A to check all files, right mouse button and 'DISABLE SELECTED ITEMS'.

Thank you!
