Bug 355012

Application: systemsettings5 (5.4.1)

Qt Version: 5.4.2
Operating System: Linux 4.2.0-17-generic x86_64
Distribution: Ubuntu 15.10

-- Information about the crash:
- What I was doing when the application crashed:
I used the system settings/file associations to try to associate text files in particular t-c++hdr and t-c++src files with emacs 24.  I didn't read any help files and something happened that makes my file manager unusable.

- Unusual behavior I noticed:
I can bring up the file manager,  and I can even run the cursor over folders, but when I touch a file the file manager disappears.  I looked for mimeapps.list and couldn't find it. I installed Ubuntu Tweak and it showed associations once, and now doesn't even start after the little icon bounces a few times.  If I go into system settings, file associations, the system immediately informs me of a crash.  I tried removing kubuntu-desktop and reinstalling, but it didn't correct my user associations.  Maybe there should be some more protection so that when a user tries to use the file associations application, he can't put something in that causes a segmentation fault.  My bad.  I know.  Sorry.  Probably have to reinstall Kubuntu 15.10.  How to save my files without a file manager?  Arrgghhh.
- Custom settings of the application:

The crash can be reproduced every time.
