First I'd like to thank anyone that replies, this has been frustrating me for days.
Current Issues:
This only seems to occur after several searches.
Edit: The problem of file explorer crashing seems to extend to opening files at all after a while.

Things I've tried:
It seems this does not occur in safe mode.
I work with images. Seeing the thumbnail and preview are important to me. I will not disable them.
Current Issues:
- Whenever I search through my files, the previews are unavailable and the icon is generic
- Whenever I right click one of those files and hover the cursor over "Open with" the entire file explorer crashes.
- Settings window for uninstalling applications hangs and crashes.
