Hi, thanks for the bug report. Can you also upload the file `%localappdata%\krita.log`? It may contain some more details to help identifying the issue.

Adding krita.log as requested. Hope it helps!

Comment 3 Halla Rempt 2022-10-05 07:38:48 UTC

Yes. The issue is that there is a PSD file in the recent files list that has an embedded pattern. This issue was resolved by reverting an earlier change:

commit d52cf1977648731ff67213fbaa88667829b214ec
Author: Halla Rempt <halla@valdyas.org>
Date:   Thu Sep 22 10:30:09 2022 +0200

    Revert "Use Krita's engine to load previews for PSD files"
    
    This reverts commit 48ca610ae89be95eb1db477379e54b37ab478ec2.
    
    This made Krita try to access resources in a background thread,
    which is not possible.
    
    BUG:459512

Comment 4 Halla Rempt 2022-10-05 07:39:57 UTC

You can work around this by either moving the PSD file to another location or removing it from the [RecentFiles] entry in the kritarc config file which you can find in the local appdata folder.

Comment 5 Alvin Wong 2022-10-05 07:42:07 UTC

You may also use the stable nightly build (available on https://binary-factory.kde.org/job/Krita_Stable_Windows_Build/) for now, which should be _mostly_ as stable as 5.1.1 with a fix for this crash included, until we release a 5.1.2 bugfix release.

Thanks Halla, I'll remove the entry!
