EP crashes notepad, sublime text editor

[ebcidic-moth]

Opening notepad or in explorer right click with notepad or sublime will open notepad and immediately crash them.
This is like virus behavior! On one of my PCs, bitdefender has already blocked EP. Guys please fix this terrible bug.

if you enabled the option register as shell extension, disable it by opening up the EP properties application, go to File Explorer, and untick Register as shell extension.

Disable EP's shell extensions. We don't offer assistance when it is enabled.
