    After adding more emitters to my libraries today, one of them now causes PI 3.0.4.3 to crash whenever I try to load it. The only thing different about that particular library is that it is over three times the size of any others (it is about 90,800 kb). If an emitter library gets too big, can it cause PI to crash?

    Update: I found and even larger emitter library (97,000+ kb) that loads just fine, so library size is not the cause of the crash. Could it be that the problematic library got corrupted somehow?

    Can I use the backup version of that emitter library (with the “.bak” extension) by renaming it to have an “.il3” extension and copy/paste it in the library folder?

    Yes, you can do this (rename a backup copy).
