Process Explorer v16.43 crashes when I am filtering on a process name and processes with that name terminate and then re-start. It happens every time with any process. I use the filter to help debug a multi-process application. When I shut down the application and the process list is shown as empty and then restart the application Process Explorer crashes. Is there a better place to report this?

I can confirm this issue. It always crashes as soon as a matching process appears or disappears.
Unfortunately i can't upload a corresponding dump.
I confirm.
Windows 11.
Process Explorer freezes when I filter python and start python processes.
It doesn't freeze if I apply the filter after I start python.

Confirmed still a problem on V17.02.
I run a test that starts Cygwin nc6.exe 20 times, and then starts more as previous ones complete. Filtering on "nc6" crashes Process Explorer almost instantly. In an older version of PE this would work for a a few minutes before crashing. With V17.02 the crash is almost immediate.
Version 17.01, and it is still a problem. I have had to reluctantly move to Process Hacker for my needs.
Version 17.04 also still has the problem. In a little while no one from Microsoft even responded in 2 years.
Thanks for suggesting Process Hacker, I'm trying it now.
