Can you capture a crash dump? You should be able to get it with the following steps:

  • Open regedit
  • Go to: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting
  • Create a key named LocalDumps
  • Create a DWORD value named DumpType with value 2
  • Trigger the crash
  • Go to the %LocalAppData%\CrashDumps folder, you should see a dump file in there

I'll try it soon

From the dump, it looks like it's something with the running indicator style. Preview builds can be incompatible and it's not a high priority for me to fix such incompatibilities, but perhaps changing the running indicator style in settings will fix it for now.

Can you please try different running indicator styles and report back if the crashing stops with different styles?

explorer.exe.71672.dmp after disable other running indicator style twaek but Taskbar Labels for win11. current configs are Centered, dynamic size (normal) and Full width (progress) I just got some idea so perhaps I can fix this if cause of only running indicator

It's the same crash.

current configs are Centered, dynamic size (normal) and Full width (progress)

What I meant in my previous message is - try to change these and and see if it helps. For example, change "Running indicator style" to "Centered, fixed size", "On the left (below the icon)" etc. and try to reproduce the crash.

THX for your advice. It seems to be problem with "dynamic size" indicator style. so until this bug is fixed, I'll use alt method with Taskbar Styler mod for my indicator tweak
