Be thankful that it crashes :-) When I last tried this, many years ago, it put Picasa in a spin. Much worse was that the spin was persistent . Shutting Picasa down, rebooting, power off, it still went into a spin . Fortunately I had backups of the XML files. Using diff I found a boolean that was changed . I set it back, the spins stopped. Now I take great care to avoid the geolocation options in Picasa.
