[Linux] Crash when opening file system

Not fully sure what caused this. For the first day or so I was able to save and load files just fine but now trying to open the file system at all produces this error and in some cases fully crashes the app.

Hey! I had the same issue and it was due to the thumbnails not being correctly saved. I was able to fix it enabling "Save Thumbnail" in Preferences/General/SaveLoad. The only problem will be that your old files will not be able to be recovered, maybe by opening them from a windows computer if you have one at hand.

If after enabling the "Save Thumbnail" option the error still appears, make sure you delete (or move) your old files from the last saved directory as PixelComposer will have this path stored as the last saved location and will still trigger the problem when you try to save or open files. Hope it helps!

After a little bit of testing this seems to be working for me

Thanks a bunch!

Awesome, glad it worked out!
