Crashlog

SUMMARY

As I attempted to try to get rid of unused brushes or brushes that came with Krita by default by deleting resources within share folder, Krita becomes paper-weight or softbricked. I can't do a single thing at all.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Delete Brushes and Bundles
2. Krita becomes softbricked

OBSERVED RESULT
You can't work on any image. It just exit.

EXPECTED RESULT
Continues to work as normally.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

The git might be different, but there is no functional difference between the built Krita and the current master. The one that I have is using a non-used box convolution code that isn't used by Krita, and nothing else is linked to these codes.

Yeah, don't do that. Leave the installation folder alone. If you remove the default brushes that are the templates for new brushes, things break. In the same vein, if you remove kritaimage.dll, things break, too.
