MacOS High Sierra 10.13.2 causing Finder crash

Since updating to MacOS High Sierra 10.13.2 (from 10.13.1), I cannot connect to my NAS unit or other computers on the network, and in attempting to do so, Finder crashes and will not relaunch. I cannot find a fix to this problem, and as a consequence, my MacBook Pro (with TouchPad 2016) has become an island. I share files between computers on the network as part of my work process so this is a pretty big issue.

MacBook Pro (15-inch, Late 2016), iOS 10.3.2

Same Problem here,

when I connect to SMB shares on our Win2012R2 servers and I start moving around files and folders the Finder starts to hang.

Only a forced restart will solve the problem.

Please help Apple!!!!

Just FYI..This problem, at least for me, does not happen when connecting to Windows Server 2008 R2..Just 2012 and 2016. Works fine with my Synology NAS too.

Agree that it works. But cifs is just toooo slow.

This seems to have helped for now. Thank you. However, it seems like using CIFS is MUCH slower than SMB. Is it my imagination??

CIFS is indeed much slower than SMB. As I sync many files over the network, just unacceptable for me.

Please have a look at the solution workaround from andy72. It works well for me.

True! Are they working really hard on the CPU kernel vulnerability?
