Describe the bug
I have no idea why does this happen. I just formatted my PC and installed a clean version of Windows 10, then this happens.

To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Double-click on goldendict.exe

Affected Dictionaries
I've noticed that some dictionaries (not all) have missed their titles, and instead appears (Title: NO HTML allowed or something like that).

Expected behavior
Make it work again

Screenshots
Can't even take one, this occurs in a second.

OS and software versions

ars (Title: NO HTML allowed or something like that).

This is a regression , fixed. should not cause the crash.

When the crash happens , is there any crash dump file in the folder crash alongside with goldendict.exe

or you can start goldendict.exe in the terminal, and send the log back.

[xiaoyifang]

or you can try some other release versions ,not the qt6.7.2

Hello,

I've tried using a different Qt version instead, and the behavior it's the same. Moreover, I can't see where is the crash folder, i use the .zip files and there's nothing inside called that.

I've also tried the latest version and nothing changes...

[xiaoyifang]

the crash folder should be in the configuration folder alongside with the index folder.
You can access the folder through menu About->Configuration Folder

or you can start goldendict.exe in the terminal, and send the log back.

Have you tried this?

from the terminal ,you also can try goldendict.exe --no-tts

can't do it, app crashes immediately after the loading window. Is there any other way to see the config folder?

Done, here it is what the console shows:

In order to analysis the dmp file ,the gd-version and dmp file must be consistent。
You can delete the existed dmp files and reproduce the dmp again .
Then upload the dmp file and the exact gd-ng version which produce the dmp file

Ok, done:

Goldendict version: latest
.dmp file associated (uploaded in an external server since github won't let me uploaded it here):
https://filebin.net/93q67et5xrwc3j4q

I wonder if i need some libraries or something like that to run the app, i don't know but this is the first time this happens to me and the program behavior doesn't make sense 🤔

[xiaoyifang]

This is the analysis result:
a.txt

Stackoverflow error. BUt I have not figured out which part of the code has caused this.

the analysis result has flooded with Qt6WebEngineCore.dll entry . Do not know any relation with this?

Can you help to try to disable the full-text with the following steps and check again.

Manually edit your goldendict-ng's config file and disable the fulltext.
In your config file ,the following fullTextSearch Section,property enabled , change into <enabled>0</enabled>

<fullTextSearch>
   <searchMode>2</searchMode>
   <dialogGeometry>AdnQywADAAAAAANbAAAA8QAABYwAAANgAAADWwAAARAAAAWMAAADYAAAAAAAAAAAB4AAAANbAAABEAAABYwAAANg</dialogGeometry>
   <disabledTypes>AARD,BGL,DICTD,DSL,SDICT,STARDICT,ZIM,EPWING,GLS</disabledTypes>
   <enabled>0</enabled>
   <maxDictionarySize>0</maxDictionarySize>
   <parallelThreads>2</parallelThreads>
  </fullTextSearch>

Or

you can backup/delete your config file and force the goldendict-ng to start freshly. then add the dictionary later .

Hello,

Sorry for not replying earlier, i was doing some tests on this, and it finally works again, i guess...
Changed to 0 that parameter as you said and now it's fixed. I've even upgraded it to the new latest release, did a reboot too and it keeps working great again.

Thanks, i don't know why it's related with the full search feature though🤔

[xiaoyifang]

If you'd like ,you can also enable the fulltext and change the parallel thread to 1 and check the result.
This can be managed through the menu, edit ->preference->fulltext

I guess ,on multi-thread environment. The code (of some format of the dictionary ) may not handled well
