Frequent Crashes in Thumbnail Mode

One of the great features of Total Commander is the ability to view files in thumbnail mode.
However, V10.5 frequently crashes when displaying thumbnails at 256 x 192 or 128 x 96 size.

Look what thumbnail providers you have.
For me there where TC crashes when SumatraPDF was providing PDF thumbnails.

If you have the K-Lite codec pack installed, it happens when the thumbnails are not square. See this message:

If you don't use it, you can try to find out which file causes the crash, and also which plugin (if a plugin was used).
Please add the following string to the file wincmd.ini, section [Configuration]:
DebugIconThread=3
You can edit the wincmd.ini via Configuration - Change settings files directly.
This is an undocumented option because it makes TC quite a bit slower. So please
remove it after finding the issue.
It will create a file named tcicolog.txt in the TEMP directory. You can go there
via TC command line:
cd %temp%
View the file with F3, scroll to the end and search backwards for:
thumb:
To find the last extracted thumbnail.
