[Issue]: MEGA app keeps crashing/freezing when syncing 1TB from my external drive #1111

Description

The MEGAsync app keeps freezing and crashing when I try to sync a 1TB folder from my external USB hard drive.

Steps to Reproduce (For Bug Reports)
Connect my external USB hard drive (contains 1TB of many small files).

Set up a "Sync" task in MEGAsync for this folder.

Wait for about 1 hour while it uploads.

The app interface stops responding (freezes) or the app closes by itself.

What happened?
The app becomes unstable after an hour of syncing. It freezes or crashes. I have to restart the app manually every time, which makes it impossible to finish the 1TB upload overnight.

What did you expect to happen?
The app should run stably until the 1TB upload is finished without freezing or crashing.

Environment Details
OS: Windows 11

MEGASync Version: Latest version (I just installed it)
