WebBuilder 18.4.2 crashes when delete table or site

Hi,

Unfortunately every time when I tried to delete a table on the page or the page itself, the program will be closed. No error message or something like that. I can delete all other contents and pages from my project, but not this table and site. Furhermore the inside elements of the table can also not be selected, deleted or whatever.
I can share the rest of my project, only need to know how.
Any idea why this happens and how to fix it?

Here the cleaned project: https://magentacloud.de/s/m7e2a6cf48pf5dS

I'm not sure if this trobule exsist since the last update or before.
Steps: Try to delete any of the both pages or the table inside the page. Can you do that? I'm not, the program crashes immedialy.
By the way, I'm working with "Win11 Home" on Dell i5 Desktop PC with 8GB RAM

Order number is not available at the moment, I'm not in the office, sorry...

I think the problem is related to the duplicated IDs. This has corrupted the structure of the table.

You can try this to fix it:
- Open the Object Manager.
- in the search field type 'Radio', this will show all radio buttons on the page.
- Right click each object and select 'remove from layer'
- next, hold the SHIFT key and click the 'Delete' button
- click OK a few times to close the popups
after this you should be able to remove the table without crashes.

To prevent this in the future, make sure all objects have a unique ID. Give your objects a meaningful name.

Also, I do not recommend to use tables for layout purposes, this is how layouts were done in the 1990s...
For modern websites, use layout grids or flex box instead.
