Thanks for the report, but could you please provide the following information:
- Backtrace of the crash (see http://techbase.kde.org/Development/Tutorials/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports )
- How you created the file  "C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt" - when using "Create New" from Dolphin no crash occurs.

The file is created when I do start Firefox (I guess from Acrobat Plugin).
I just did recreate the file with:
echo "" > "C:\nppdf32Log\debuglog.txt"

Bang, Dolphin crashed. So its always reproduce able for me.

My KDE isn't enabled with debugging, if you are really unable to reproduce I will try to install new packages as a last choice.

The only message that appear when crashing on console:
QSocketNotifier: Invalid socket 17 and type 'Read', disabling...

It does not crash here when I'm doing this. Please install the debugging-packages: They only require some disk-space but don't have any influence on the performance.

Cannot reproduce this issue with Dolphin 17.12.3. If @cssguru cannot reproduce either, I'll close this bug soon.

No response -> closing. Please reopen the bug report if you still experience this behavior with newer versions of Dolphin.
