Freeze on 'Search programs and files' #2529

Description

@LinuxOnTheDesktop

Describe the bug

I had the main window open (and no sub-windows). I entered a search term. Then - though I fear there may some intermediate steps that I forgot - the program froze; I managed to close the program by restarting explorer.exe. Here is a screenshot, showing the window that froze, when it was frozen, together - via a program bundled with AutoHotKey - some information about the frozen window.

Area of issue

Start menu

To reproduce

Unknown. But perhaps, sometimes:

  1. Left-click the tasbar icon.
  2. Enter a search term.

Expected behavior

No freeze.

Open-Shell version

4.4.199

Windows version

Windows 11 Pro - 25H2 (2009: 26200)

Additional context

I have used OpenShell, and indeed my current version of it (viz., 4.4.199) for a long time and never before encountered this problem.

But I see now from this issue template that I ought to try the latest version; and that version turns out to be 4.4.200. So I will try that one. Feel free to close this report in the meantime.
