Actually, the Set File DA tends to "bomb" a lot on a 128K 1-drive system.
At least, this is true of the version I have.  It seems to respond to events
other than those directed to it: it also spontaneously opens itself when
you eject a disk, sometimes. (I noticed a posting in here about a month
ago complaining of a bug in some software product that caused it to ask you
to reinsert the disk as soon as you ejected it; this is what the Set File
DA does, and thus wondered if the person had Set File installed.)  I wrote
to the authors to report the problem, and they replied "yes, we've seen it,
but can't reproduce it regularly," and have heard nothing since.  Was a
new version that has this fixed posted later, which just didn't get here?
