LV crash when creating a QControl inside an auto-populating folder

Steps to reproduce:

 

1. Create and save a blank project

2. Create the subfolder "Test" in the project folder on disk

3. Add this subfolder as Auto-populating folder in the project

4. Create a new QControl, inheriting from Control, give it any name, change the folder to the "Test" subfolder.

6. Press Create -> Crash "DAbort 0x2A7EA578 in LVLibrary.cpp".

 

Using LV 20.0.1 (32-bit)

I’ll look into it but as a general rule you shouldn’t use auto-populating folders with LabVIEW Classes.  This goes for QControls as well because they are LabVIEW Classes.

I know, auto-populating folders are generally not recommended at all.

But I usually have an a-p "Tests" folder in my projects where I put all my "experimental" / "trash" VIs and classes, so that they are automatically stored in a separate folder without much effort.
