Description

### What Happened?

Noticed this issue while downloading then seeding Elementary OS in /Downloads, and attempting to move other files located in /Downloads.

Unticking Show Local Thumbnails in Files' settings seems to fix the below problem.

### Steps to Reproduce

1. Have torrent client operating with a file downloading or seeding
2. Open /Downloads in Files
3. Right click, copy or cut a file located in /Downloads
4. Attempt to paste elsewhere
5. Files hangs, then crashes

(n.b. using keyboard shortcuts to CTRL X and CTRL V files seems to be more successful)

### Expected Behavior

Didn't expect Files to crash

### OS Version

8.x (Circe)

### OS Architecture

amd64 (on most hardwares)

### Session Type

Classic and Secure Sessions (I have tested in both)

### Software Version

Latest release (I have run all updates)

### Log Output

```shell

```

### Hardware Info

_No response_
