Explorer.exe crashes when opening a folder with mkv files.
I did a google search and came up with a friend who had a similar problem.
http://social.answers.Microsoft.com/forums/en-us/w7files/thread/db90c294-05e6-4BBB-9182-a51e55e98349
My problem was the unresolved question (that means third-party programs are not the problem?) so I was wondering how I can fix the problem. For me specifically is not a file of 4 gb, but the files just randomly with mkv in them. I havn't exactly tested to see if it has to deal with the size of the file or not, but I can tell when I open 2 GB files, they work fine. I say this because I can open a file with a mkv which is a little more than 2 GB and explorer.exe not crushed. Here is the info I get from event viewer.

Hi BlackPhoenix23,
In this thread the poster informed origin as "haali splitter" caused the problem. Looks like some programs non-Microsoft is the origin of the problem. We recommend that you check if a non-Microsoft program is the cause on your computer.
To do this, try the following steps:
a. open the article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135
b. Article, follow "step 1: perform a clean boot" the implementation of these measures will disable all programs not Microsoft currently running on the computer.
c. restart the computer and check if the problem persists.
d. If the problem does not persist in the boot, it means that some programs non-Microsoft is the source of the problem.
e. to find the program that is causing the problem, try "step 2: enable half the services" to "step 6: resolve the problem.
f. Once you find the culprit, check if there is any updates to update or fixes to the program. If you find, install them and check the difference or reinstall the latest program.
g. Article, follow "step 7: reset the computer to start as usual.Visit our Microsoft answers feedback Forum and let us know what you think.

Windows 7 Explorer.exe unresponsive - Event ID 1000 (new construction)
Hello
I have stability with Windows 7 Explorer.exe problems on my newly built PC.
Web browsers and Explorer.exe crash at startup or display the message "stopped responding" to the opening.
The Explorer.exe "not responding" issue has become less common, but I think it's perhaps related to the instability with web browsers.
I find no trigger that causes the crash, the PC is perfectly stable when left slowed or even during running scans.It may not be relevant, but for a short period, I found that typing caused accidents. Opening IE11 and click on the links on the homepage has worked.
However the second I typed in the address bar or search IE11 would be "blocks".
During this time I could also cause explorer.exe crash by typing the search / in the start menu. Still manually by clicking programs and icons did not cause an accident. Still happen when using the virtual keyboard.
However, this is no past time, but the instability of web browser continues. Is a crash on startup (Firefox more than IE11) or "does not" after various periods of time.Test completed
- SFC/scannow reveals no problem
- No card graphics or other PCI devices are not connected (mother/ram/cpu only Board)
- RAM has been tested on this PC & another known working PC & vice vera
- Audit pilot Manager does not display any driver without a permit
- 2009 fix for this issue is not relevant as input 'gas machine' is not in the registry
- All the installed drivers are WHQL
I'd appreciate really any contributions to this number & it makes me crazy now. I can't believe I'm the only person having problems on a new installation.

Thank you!
The modules 'fault' seem to be all the system such as the MSHTML.dll files.
However another, possibly third-party files, can actually cause accidents.
It can help to see what modules are loading during accidents.
You can download and run the following application (AppCrashView):
http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/app_crash_view.html
Click on one of the mistakes recent iexplore.exe.
Can you copy and paste the information that appears in the lower window that loaded modules.
Do the same for an error in explorer.exe.

Original title: Tidying to the top of my desk after riding it a virus
After cleaning after infection by the virus qqlog whenever I log in, I get an error message; " ! Office could not load or run 'explorer.exe' specified in the registry. Make sure that the file exists on your computer or remove the reference to it in the registry. Explorers of two Windows Open C:\. And when I close the first error an another explorers of five Windows Open C:\. Basically, I still have to do, but don't know how. Apart from the slowness of opening no other problems. Can someone give me help please. Thanks Andrew
Make sure you have backups of all important data for you (Favorites/internet Favorites, music, photos, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, drawings, numbers of series and product keys and installation to start with media) as soon as POSSIBLE.
Format and start from scratch OR use the 'Restore Factory default' the manufacturer can give you. Your stuff of restoring a backup after installation of your spplications on the machine.
Why? If this system is still messed up after cleaning a virus/trojan/worm/spyware/adware/malware - it may have to discover/waiting more moving and / ore actually operate 100% may take longer to restore to the Virgin (not to mention you can never achieve 100% otherwise.)

No explorer.exe, no office, only taskmanager
I need serious help, please. I have a problem with explorer.exe running, and I have no office. Whenever I try to run explorer.exe from the Task Manager, I get the error "Windows Explorer has stopped working". The Task Manager are the only way to manage programs that do not stop for any reason any. And using regedit is the only way I can browse my files and computer records, but try to run explore itself does not work. I think that the two causes have contributed to this: updatng my windows vista sp1, and infection by the virus. I ran my antivirus programs several times during this week and a half of the period because my computer has lost the functionality of office and explorer.exe. But what is weird for me, is that as soon as my computer restarted to complete the sp1, I logged on to see these problems. And I searched the internet and forums, try to apply the methods that others have used to overcome their problems of black screen. I learned by making autoruns that there is an inscription that says no file not found: explorer .exe, but I checked that explore is in the windows directory before and after usage of autoruns. I also tried to use my vista repair disc and using the system restore but either my restore dates were not before my problems or windows cannot find any restore points. Tried to use sfc/scannow too, the first time I ran it it found problems, but not did me not how to fix it, the next time that I ran it there were no errors. I tried so many different solutions to try to fix this problem, but nothing worked so far. I'm even tries to reinstall windows, but I got the error install.wim. I think the single biggest problem is that some registry value is damaged because of my virus. It seems that I have more the virus well. I wish to obtain professional assistance from microsoft, but I'm willing to try any solution I have not applied. I checked my registry and found that ave.exe (which was probably my virus) has been included in several of my registry values. If anyone has any ideas on values may be corrupt registry help. However, reformat my system is not an option because I gigabytes of videos and music, and of course, I am not prepared to lose that, sorry. But I don't like too much for my programs. I plan buy-in to an external hard drive to back up my media up but I think I'd always meet problems do because I still be able to browse my computer and with explorer.exe does not, it would be virtually impossible.
Hi oktbr26,
It is possible that your computer is still infected and worst case is that you have to reinstall Windows. Try the troubleshooting steps in this thread, described by SpiritX, to remove the virus.

PC works fine in SafeMode w / networking.
Help please,
PC Professional, accounting files needed!
SOS!The fact that your system works well in Safe Mode (w / network) indicates that a program run as part of your startup that causes this condition. Safe mode is nothing else than Windows running with a bare minimum of programs and processes required to start your system (that is, all non-essential is cut off).
This problem will be a proposal of chance. You need start your computer Safe Mode and run a configuration manager (msconfig or autoruns) and disable programs that run automatically at startup, until you find the (s) which is causing your problem in a selective way. First turn off non-Microsoft and programs that extend if necessary MS programs. These programs will warn you generally if you try to disable something you shouldn't. After you turn off some of them, you restart normally and see if the problem persists. Once you find the program/process disturbed, the procedure is usually obvious as to the difficulty (usually UN-installing then re - install)

I have a friends Compac laptop and he managed to stop loading explorer.exe when starting after logon is complete. I can't for the life of me remember what I have to do to restore this process in the startup routine so that his office will be in charge. He has an extraordinary number of startups, but he managed to remove this (essential) program, especially in lists of useless junk that is responsible.
It's a compact with an Intel processor running Vista and of course it doesn't have the ERD. There is a recovery on the hard drive partition and if I knew how to use it, maybe this would a repair option, but I'm not clear on how to use either because there is no literature or what he had with the computer. By way of explanation, he is a foster child and had been tossed around a lot, so it's not too surprise that it doesn't have any of these materials.
