Snipping Tool Bug

I have now noticed that my Automation Studio (4.12.6.106) crashes more often when the Windows Snipping Tool (Win11 24H2) is open.
AS simply closes as if the task was simply terminated.

Is this a local problem for me, or is there something known here?

I have personally not experienced the issue that you are describing, nor have I heard of anyone else experiencing it. It sounds like it could indeed be a local issue, but it could of course also be a bug. I would recommend you to send the crash logs to your local B&R support office for analysis, or you could also ask them to open a support ticket, for that it would be good to also have a Windows event log.
