Bug Description
I describe whole the issue on this link: https:/
But I describe here too:
1. I right-click on desktop and choose desktop properties to change the background image
2. choose the background image and close all opened windows
3. permanently delete the set image from my PC
4. re-open the desktop properties to change the Wallpaper mode
5. suddenly the desktop properties crashed and a black tiny window alert me
6. I didn't read it and press yes
7. after it the pcmanfm-qt and many system apps doesn't work (doesn't work means dead completely, clicking on them or running from terminal is like doing nothing)
8. then by the suggestion of AskUbuntu user I change the background image from terminal by changing the ~/.config/
9. then everything became ok
So I believe crashing pcmanfm-qt just for an nonexistent image is a bug, it should show the solid background color or something else.

Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better.
I had a fresh groovy install running (QA-test on first boot) and confirmed the issue on that box, so it impacts groovy too.
I see no evidence of a crash (step 5); no crash dump in /var/crash/, lxqt-panel still operates normally, however htop shows (`ps -elf` output)
0 R guiverc 1114 1039 9 80 0 - 347758 - 15:48 ? 00:03:56 /usr/bin/pcmanfm-qt --desktop --profile=lxqt
hovers around 100%, desktop preferences window is still on my display and can be dragged around, but it's contents are whatever window last covered it, and it's unusable. I can use `firefox` to enter this detail correctly, qterminal & other apps start & operate fine from menu (but NOT pcmanfm-qt; it remains at ~100% cpu looping..).
A bug yes, but should I have suggested pcmanfm-qt? I'm not sure.
