Paraview crashing when selecting cells

ParaView Support
1

I know this issue has been here before but I am encountering it again in 5.12 on Windows.

I converted output files from SPARTA with the tool grid2paraview.py provided by it. This creates the file structure that can be seen in the attached zip. everything works fine until I try to select cells with the (interactive) select Cells functionality (endgoal is plot over time).
Are the files just to big, or is it a bug ?
I’ve already tried reinstalling Paraview.
with 32Gb of Ram available on my PC vs the 200Mb file size, I would not expect so.(Dropbox - result0_1_2_20.rar - Simplify your life)

No problem here using ParaView 5.12 on Linux.

Which selection tools are you using exactly ?

Sry for getting back to your reply a bit late.
I’ve been trying to use (interactive) select Cells On (the green triangle with the arrow pointing to it, wether its the one with dottet line around or without makes no difference).
I’ve also tried using a Linux version (5.10.0-RC1) under WSL. This leads to crashes as well however.
But it put out the following error:

Maybe that helps.

I confirm this crash, it is specific to Windows.
