Photoshop crashes while navigating to save
For the past several weeks, I have encountered a problem when saving a file in Photoshop. If I use the save dialog to navigate to a directory other than the last directory used by Photoshop, the program crashes. Usually navigation up one or more levels works and the crash occures when I attempt to drill down.
The workaround involves using Explorer++ or Q-Dir to navigate to the desired directory, copy the path, and save the file with a fully qualified file name.
(Example: E:\GRAPHICS\Miscellaneous\ComputerSign.psd)
Because this sometimes happens in the Windows File Explorer (but never in Explorer++ or Q-Dir), my conjecture is that Windows is at least partially at fault. But I see the issue only in Photoshop and Photoshop (Beta), which suggests that part of the problem is Adobe's.

The workaround is functional, but annoying, and I hope someone has seen and resolved this issue.
