A small number of users reported a crash when clicking into the prompt editor field in AutoTagger.
I could so far not reproduce this but the DUMP files I have received show that the spell checker in IMatch causes the crash - but only if the user did not to install a spell checker dictionary and thus disabled the spell checker in IMatch.

Even without dictionaries and on two fresh installations this problem does not happen here. I have added some extra checks to verify the spell checker state and this crash should not happen anymore.

After receiving another DUMP file last evening I've learned that the crash happens when a user opens Edit > Preferences > AutoTagger and clicks on the button to edit the prompt.
The prompt editor opens and adds the context placeholder token as a known word to the spell checker - to avoid the token being flagged as an unknown word all the time. This is where the crash happens, for some users.

I still could not reproduce this on my desktop PC, my notebook and a Windows 11 and Windows 10 instance running in a virtual PC.

This is a bit like trying to stab a fly with a tooth pick in the dark and fog.

Hopefully the 2025.1.6 version does not crash for the two or three users (?) affected.
