Steps to reproduce (there may be more ways):
- Create a folder "Music/MP3" in your home folder and put some tracks into this folder and its subfolders
- Start Mixxx with a fresh profile
- Choose music library directory: "Music/MP3"
- Add Music/MP3 as a quick link -> "MP3"
- Remove quick link "MP3"
-> crash

Sometimes I needed a second try to make Mixxx crash.

The following fix prevents the crash:

This is only regarded as a hotfix! The management of the sidebar tree in BrowseFeature might be conceptually wrong and broken. I don't plan to analyze and fix this.
