Finder consuming 100% of CPU and crashing

When navigating through image files (outside of the Photos app), Finder is consuming 100% of my mini’s CPU time and crashing. No other files or folders are open.


Any ideas on how to prevent this from occurring? Thanks.

Mac mini 2018 or later

Please determine if the same problems occur in "Safe Mode": Use safe mode to isolate issues with your Mac.
