I've seen that once too. But unfortunately the explorer just quit
without throwing an exception - otherwise I could have started the
debugger :(

The pure address of the crash isn't very useful - a stacktrace would be
much better in such a case. But that's not easy to get.

Could you please try the next nightly build and see if it still crashes?
I haven't been able to reproduce this, even though I moved about a
thousand files around in the last hour.

- Maybe it has something to do with the type of file you move/copy?
- Do you move/copy single files or multiple files at once?
- What view do you have in explorer? (detailed/list/symbol/...)
- if in detailed view: do you have any columns activated other than
filename/filetype/size/date?
