Hi, I recently have this problem whenever I open my computer,then exit it, I get the message Windows Explorer has stopped working??, then it says Windows Explorer is restarting??..This happens even if I reboot, and never goes away?.. Can someone tell me why this is happening??, and is there a fix for it?? I have even done a system restore, with no success?? hmmmm???
Regards,
Riptorn:confused:

Might consider using System Restore back to time before this error appeared, after using all your options and patience. I use another application called UltraExplorer that has nearly replaced Windows Explorer.:)

The appcrash event references a file called minidump.mdmp which contains additional information about the Explorer crash. If you zip that up and upload it, someone might be able to help.

1.I remember but IE and Windows Explorer use many the same modules and "system power" so many settings are common
2.Find file minidump.mdmp whats ask you @H2SO4->it should be in C:\Users\<your account>\AppData\Local\Temp and attache here to post
