Drat.
Disabling hardware acceleration didn't fix it. It just happened again on a paste (CTRL-V) of some simple material (' class="copyright"') copied with the standard CTRL-C. I'm pretty sure this was the first thing I did in this Editor session. Here's the Event Viewer information:

This time around there were a couple of identical things in the Viewer that happened one second after the editor crashed:

But, since those are a standard "Out of the Box Experience" (i.e., it started immediately after the fresh install of the OS and before anything else was installed) problem that started flooding my Event Viewer log with Windows 11 22H2 that the geniuses at Microsoft are ignoring, they're likely not the cause.
Double-drat. If I hadn't written that disabling hardware acceleration was the solution to this and several other of my issue, I'm sure nothing bad would have happened

.
EDIT: BTW, that CTRL-C text I added, above, is actually from my Windows copy/paste buffer. So, the copy worked fine. It's just Qt6WebEngineCore.dll got a Exception code: 0xc0000005 (access violation, I believe) on a simple paste. And that shouldn't happen. I guess I'm looking at a full system re-install in some attempt to make sure this isn't something corrupted on my system (although DISM, SFC and chkdsk all find no issues).
