Here's my log

*** Bug 508768 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** I think I've found the strangest reason why digiKam crashes at this point in the log. I haven't been able to reproduce it on my Windows test systems. I use a link to launch digiKam that I've placed on the desktop. Launching digiKam from its Start menu doesn't cause any issues. The problem reproducibly occurs when launching digiKam from the recent programs link in the Start menu. The cause is likely due to a link registration at the beginning to use the Windows notification window instead of our own notification window. Maik FWIW...it launches just fine from the CLI but not when pinned to the Taskbar. Yes, that's right. If I launch the program from the folder C:\Program Files\digiKam or create a shortcut from there on the desktop, digikam starts. It doesn't work when pinned to the taskbar.

Pushed by mqualmann into branch 'master'. create a shortcut link is not the right way, because NSIS has already created one M +2 -2 core/app/utils/digikam_globals_bundles.cpp https://invent.kde.org/graphics/digikam/-/commit/2b16511113ff74bfd29e2ce7b95f39afa591e5cb Git commit 5ff1e778c722f34cc41fadd94ba4ef285b117b4e by Maik Qualmann.

QWebEngine was the trigger due to a breakpoint. The cause was the missing "Run in" path in the program startup link. We now set the current working directory on the program side.
