KDE Platform Version: 4.8.5 (4.8.5)

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
Just installed it on Win7 x64 (I have admin rights). In the initial wizard I only changed default directory of picture library and digiKam database to F:\Pictures . This folder contains subfolders (one sub-folder with space in the name) about 5-6 levels deep with general year/year_month_day structure. Whole F:/Pictures contains about 10k images

- Custom settings of the application:

Other than pictures library, Everything was default

The crash can be reproduced every time.

Hi Andrey,

Could you try just released digiKam 3.1.0 and see if the problem is still there? The new version how folders and images are watched in the OS which may fix your problem. Here is a link to the installer:

This problem is not reproducible with last 5.0.0.
