Too many crashdumps detected / retries disallowed! with latest version 1.29.2.6334

Hi
I updated this afternoon to version 1.29.2.6334 and after a while the server crashed. Within Plex Media Server.log I didn’t see directly anything special but under Plex Crash Uploader log I have the folowing:

Oct 29, 2022 18:08:50.764 [7396] ERROR - Too many crashdumps detected / retries disallowed!

Never saw this before and for the crash within the event log I have this:
Faulting application name: Plex Media Server.exe, version: 1.29.2.6334, time stamp: 0x63566ee0
Faulting module name: ucrtbase.dll, version: 10.0.17763.1490, time stamp: 0x48ac8393

Faulting package-relative application ID:

I restarted all to see if it crashes again in 2-3 hours

I also see crashes from Yesterday but from the scanner and not the server itself (here still from the old version).
This happend 4 times yesterday:
Faulting application name: Plex Media Scanner.exe, version: 1.29.1.6316, time stamp: 0x63500b57
Faulting module name: ntdll.dll, version: 10.0.17763.3532, time stamp: 0xbe72b56e

And checking now the entire event log I see that error since many days
So I now restarted a full scan to see what is happening

C:\Plex\MetaData\Plex Media Server\Crash Reports\1.29.2.6334-817e19b35 is empty
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\CrashDumps I emptied as many old dumps where in
My c:\temp I cleaned up too just like my log folder to have new proper logs to maybe attach if needed

During the scan I see in the logs this:

Oct 29, 2022 18:35:54.286 [8420] WARN - [Req#3547d] Missing X-Plex-Container-Size header. This will fail with status code 400 in the future.

That appears very often

Is that something that can be ignored?

I’m having a very similar issue even with a clean install of the server, but it also spams thousands of files in the Plex Media Server data folder. I’ve done a clean install of Windows 11 Pro 64 bit version 22H2 and it occurs every time.
