Windows 10: File open dialog crashes randomly in WPF application

Hi,In my application file open dialog crashes randomly in WPF application based .Net framework. In event viewer logs, it reports Access violation exception in ntdll.dllThis issue occurs only with new style file open dialog box for file dialogs from both Microsoft.Win32 and System.Windows.Forms.This issue is not happening with old style file open dialog boxes.when using FileOpenDialog from System.Windows.Forms with AutoUpgradeEnabled flag set as false.On verifying by enabling Application verifier using gflags application, issues are reported in event viewer on closing the file open dialog b

Enable visual styles in WPF application

EUREKA!

Steps:
1) I made a Windows form (HostWPF namespace, Form1 is the form).
2) I added a reference => System.Windows.Forms.Integration which contains classes that enable interoperation between the Windows Forms and WPF technologies. When you use System.Windows.Forms.Integration classes, you can host Windows Forms controls on WPF pages, and WPF elements in Windows Forms-based applications.
3) Then added a control (damn Vi$ual $tudio 2010 does not allow to add a WPF window) but after adding I edited the XMAL code in the way I want *Wink
4) The next steps are simple. Download the first attachment. But => see the photo.
It crashes!!!!!
5) Finally???
We must use System.Windows.Forms.Application.Exit(); command because the WPF window behaves like a classical Windows Form.
Download the second attachment. Note that the Windows form's name is Initial.
Enjoy!

 

Applications crash during file open dialogs

Windows10 Home

Version 10.0.17134

In Chrome and in Cybershot PowerDirector17 (a video editor application), when I try to change a path (switch from one directory to another) in a file open dialog, the application crashes. It's so bad I don't use Chrome (Liking Edge a lot) but I can't do
without the video editor so I need to find an answer on how to prevent this from happening. Curiously, the problem does not happen when using file dialogs in Edge, nor in the majority of applications on my PC. It's really just these 2 apps. Would appreciate
any suggestions.

 

File Open/Save Dialog causing applications to crash

Seemingly ever since the Windows 10 Creators Update installed itself on my computer, I've been having issues when using the File Open/Save dialog. If I try and open a file, save a file, or upload a file to attach to an email, the application that I'm using will crash (whether it's Chrome, Word, Paint etc). Edge, however, works fine and weirdly, Firefox also works fine.

I have been doing some debugging, trying to figure out what it could be, but I'm running out of things to try.

I've tried the following:

• Resetting folder views to default
  
• Enabling "Show all Folders" in Folder View Settings
  
• Starting computer in safe mode (where the dialog would work just fine)
  

I have also run some tests using MS Paint. I downloaded an application called DebugDiag 2, and had that watch the mspaint process to capture the exceptions thrown when the application would crash. These are the ID's of those exceptions:

• 0XC000001D
  
• 0XC000041D
  

Still using MS Paint as my test application, if I ran it as an adminstrator, I was able to use the File Open/Save dialog perfectly fine, but closing the application then reopening as a normal user would then end with the application crashing upon trying to open a file.

Another thing I've noticed is that when I first sign into Windows, I have about 30 seconds where I can open MS Paint, and be able to use the File Open/Save dialog just fine. After that time, if I close the dialog and then try to use it again, the application will crash.

I've read online that this issue is sometimes caused by the File Open/Save dialog trying to show a folder that no longer exists, or is on an unreachable network drive. So with that in mind, I have restarted my computer (getting that 30 seconds of grace when I first sign in) to be able to open MS Paint, and save a new file to my downloads folder, in the hopes that it would update the "last used folder". Unfortunately, this didn't solve the issue.

Is there anything else I can try?
