Hello girl,

Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community Forum.

  1. What is the exact error code or message that you receive, when you say 'Explorer.exe '?
  2. Exactly when you receive this error message?
  3. You did it any significant hardware or change software on the computer before this problem?
  4. When you say, "preparing your desktop", you see no latency during the Windows logon?

According to your description, the question may arise due to file system corruption. Thus, I would you recommend to disconnect all the external devices connected to the computer except the mouse and keyboard, restart your computer and check if your screens hung up on "preparing your desktop". Apart from this, I would suggest trying the following solutions and check if the problem persists.

Method 1:

The opening of explorer.exe, if you get the error "Server execution failed", then I suggest you to try the hotfix in the following link and check the issue.

Error message when you try to start Explorer.exe in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2: "Server execution failed".

If this method does not address your problem, try the next method.

Method 2:

Try to run a scan of the file system (CFS) auditor to check any file corruption:

  1. Go to Start, click all programs and open the Accessories.
  2. Right-click on command prompt in the list programs, and then select run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, click OK, or alternatively click on Yes.
  3. In the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
    sfc/scannow

For more information, refer to this link:

Additional information:

To check for freezing explorer.exe and latency on the Windows form, see the following link.

8.1 Windows, Windows 8 or Windows 7 hangs or freezes

Antivirus warning: The data files that are infected must be cleaned only by removing the file completely, which means that there is a risk of data loss.

Hope this information is useful. If the problem still persists, please post back for further assistance, we will be happy to help you.

  • Explorer.exe and svchost.exe using too much memory

    I have disabled the automatic updates after the last round of updates, and now, all of a sudden, explorer.exe and svchost.exe use too much memory... enough to interfere with other programs, I try to use.

    Help?

    Windows XP Professional - Svc Pack 3 processor: Intel (r) Pentium (r) D CPU 2.80GHz CPU speed: 2.73 GHz memory: 512 MB

    Why you turn off automatic updates?

    There are between the two options. I just set it to notify. When it is practical, I go to the Microsoft Update slte and use the custom (not Express) option. This gives the user full control of the update of trial.

    You will have a better idea of the cause of the problem using Process Explorer.

    Download Process Explorer.

    Have you recently changed all types of starting any service. This often leads to the problem. Users often disable a reflection of service to speed up the system performance. In practice what is done is of one or several programs to malfunction.

  • Media Center 2005 crashed I loaded Windows XP sp2. Installing XP cannot load explorer.exe and another dll file... Need help or information on how to request recovery of microsoft disk MC2005... Gateway has not.

    Help please... I have a gateway gt4024 designed with Media Center 2005. Recently, the system was not "acting accordingly so I tried to reload the OS." I realized that I didn't have the recovery disc, then I decided to load XP Professional I had on it. The law on the computer is as it has been installed correctly and then I get a message saying explorer.exe could not be loaded properly or the drive perhaps is corupted and the same message to another .dll file. Once completed, I can reboot and use the computer, but then the windows installer will not work and the drivers are still present on the hard drive. Now, I loaded the new operating system before and I know that pilots are not supposed to be always present on the system. I then put a new hardrive has had the same problem. So, I then took the hardrive and placed in another computer that was be a dell and load xp fine without error. Can someone point me in the right direction. I contacted gateway to another Media Center recoverydisk, but they said because the computer was no longer under warranty, that they did not have the specified disc and to contact Microsoft. A link would be useful.

  • errors.__Programs bad image Explorer.exe and dwm.exe chrome.exe gel!

    Laptop has gone haywire, a couple of days and were not abloe to use it since.

    End laptop will start, then freeze as soon as I click on something. The cursor stays on loading mode (blue circle) until I have to manually turn off.

    I ran windows Defender, but he couldn't finish before freezing.

    I had Google chrome.exe bad image or dwm.exe and explorer.exe errors pop up.

    I even tried to run in safe mode, but my malwarebytes scan froze at the 6 minute mark.

    If all else fails, I'll have to re - install Vista, but hoped for more suggestions of your savvy it professionals there.

    IM on Vista Home btw.

    Altogether. Yes, you can replace a hard drive in a laptop. If the laptop is still under warranty, contact Dell technical support. If this isn't the case, you can buy a hard drive for the laptop to your favorite online or offline store. I normally buy equipment in NewEgg.com. Of course, you will need to install Windows on your new hard drive. If you do not have a recovery with her media, you need get the Dell disks. After you have installed Windows on your new hard drive, if it was not with a recovery disk, you will need to download/install drivers and utilities from the Dell Web site, update Vista Service Pack 2, do all the Windows updates, install a good antivirus (I recommend ESET NOD32 for a commercial and Avast for a free) restore your data from backup.

    If you can't do the work yourself (and there is no shame in admitting this isn't your cup of tea), take the machine to a professional computer repair shop (not your local equivalent of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad).

  • There are several instances of explorer.exe running in Task Manager (currently 7), each help between 10 and 40 MB of memory.

    Explorer.exe processes use resources cpu at different times.  I remember reading at the time that this could be a sign of a virus, but I did a full scan with NIS 2010 and nothing showed.  Can someone give me pointers where to begin to investigate?

    I did a clean install of Windows 7 Friday last-formatted disk HARD and everything, so he didn't have much time for something bad to happen!

    I discovered what is causing the explorer.exe hang... If you give ALL the arguments for explorer.exe in your shortcut/properties, to try to change the default of libraries directory, it crashes.  For example, simply using "explorer.exe C:\. "will cause a task explore hang whent you close it... to crash, I mean the window closes, but the process remains in memory.  I had 15 tonight explorer.exe...  There is advice on the net on how to get the default Explorer for workstation (which I have been using this trick - I HATE default libraries which I NEVER use)... so change your shortcut and remove all the arguments for explorer.exe.  See if it suits it!

    As expected, the support has no knowledge on what I see.

    PS - I just understand how default Explorer for workstation... Its strange, but it works...  Click right drag the icon from your desktop on the desktop on an empty space.  Create shortcut...  Now detach any Windows Explorer, you have in your taskbar... Now left click, drag your shortcut from the desktop to the taskbar.    Now, if you simply click on it, you go into libraries... BUT - if instead you right click, you will see the shortcut from the desktop and select this option, it goes into my computer... and there's never hang out of any EXTRA explorer.exe!

  • Infect winlogon.exe, explorer.exe virus and virus Hosts-DNS

    Hi guys,.

    A laptop computer, that I'm not using has recently been infected with a virus from winlogon.exe and explorer.exe and one DNS host virus.
    I tried to use avast: edition free, malwarebytes and spybot search and destroy.
    And as a last resort, I used Norton Power Eraser...

    The problem is not cleaner Antivirus or antispyware can eliminate this type of virus.
    And not boot into safe mode and try to remove it from there do not remove viruses at all.
    I took this laptop a laptop technician where he took out the hard drive and scanned for viruses, but when I came back the virus or on it.

    What can I do to remove these viruses, since it has severely reduced performance on my pc and the virus's keep redirect my Web pages, I will be using internet explore?
    I think that the virus has embedded themselves inside the windows operating system.

    Thank you
    Brent

    Hi mate

    Usually the explorer.exe, winlogon.exe are running Microsoft files and these files belongs to the Windows operating system and must be placed in the folder C:\Windows\System32.
    If it a case then these are not viruses.

    However, you can try the Antivirus application free Avira Antivirus software.
    Google for it you can download it for free.
    Scan the system and check again.

    As a last option, I recommend reinstalling the system using the Toshiba recovery disc!
    That would erase everything from the HARD drive.

  • Windows XP explorer.exe keeps hanging, freezing and crashing

    Recently installed the new copy of Windows XP SP2 on a new SSD and updated to SP3. My old hard drive is used to store the data now. I also have an external hard drive. I have 4 GB of RAM installed (I know Windows uses only about 3).

    The problem I have is that whenever I try to transfer files, transfer files slows down a lot. I could transfer a 60 MB file with extension .db for my external hard drive on the internal storage drive and the file transfer will tell 10 seconds to 20 seconds remaining, and it takes forever. If I cancel the file transfer, sometimes, I'm unable to close windows Explorer, or change files or right click on the files. They can do a text "not responding" appear next to the title. Usually, my Start menu and task bar becomes disabled/inaccessible. I can't click on things, do a right click or use the windows key. Sometimes I have to force quit the explorer.exe, and sometimes it hangs on its own. The start menu disappears and if I have "explorer.exe" Task Manager, it opens a new window of Solution Explorer, but I have to restart to get everything working again.
    For my SSD, I use Samsung magician and have disabled disabled prefetcher, of indexing and my samsung magician set power settings. I updated the Intel controller for readers, and "Write cache" is enabled in the strategies of discs. I also tried to switch off the Protection of data for explorer.exe running, but it does not work and currently I have DEP on for everything. This suspension occurs sometimes, simply browsing through Explorer. I installed a 3rd party file 'ExplorerXP' Manager but met the same problem there. I also ran chkdsk and Defrag the interal storage disk. All my services are at their default settings.

    Thanks for the reply. I have only the OEM drive, so I can't run the System File Checker. I have run chkdsk, and everything came back fine. Regarding anti-virus, I was using windows security essentials.

    I went ahead and bought a new hard drive. I backed up my files on external hard drive, course deleted my SSD and formatted the embarrassing internal drive. Installed the new hard drive and installed the new OS on the SSD.
    With the new drive and installed former player, I noticed that still send me in trouble. It works, but is very slow when copy/transfer of large files. I unplugged, unless you know how I could make a use - for example to keep more small files less than 30 MB on it.
  • Explorer.exe partially stops working

    Hello

    A weird one.  Brand new Lenovo T530 running Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.
    Machine starts and runs Ok, then go a little strange after "awhile", could be 5 or 10 minutes or hours, just using normal applications of Office 2010 or Office 2013, Windows Live Mail, Chrome, Internet Explorer or Windows Explorer.  Sometimes, using MYOB.
    'Strange' always in this case means that by clicking on the start flag icon and typing an application is no longer bring anything in the list.  Just by clicking on start it will display the normal list, clicking on which will bring up the app, but typing shows no results.
    Strange also means that, in some of these partial, broken as clicking on an icon in the bar tasks does not open the application.  For example Word
    Strange means that when often occurs in Windows Explorer it will display all the photos in the window, still tho also operates to allow you to modify records, select different objects, etc.
    Restart this resets until then happens intermittently.  Maybe minutes, hours or a day or two, but still happens.
    A quick way to get things working again is to left click on the taskbar (which still works in these situations), open the Task Manager, process open, click left on explorer.exe and end task, and then go to file, new, explorer.exe and everything works again.  Tho if Windows Explorer is opened then that will be closed.
    Then work Ok u skills that she then reappears intermittently.
    Abreast of updates from Lenovo and Windows.
    What the?  Nothing in Event Viewer.  There is no indication the machine think that something happened yet explore acting.

  • Windows Recovery eliminated virus and recovered office, now back in the office hidden objects

    Hello

    I removed the Malware from Windows of a customers machine and then fixed recovery problems that caused removal regarding masking of the files linked on the desktop and programs.

    It was successful and the machine is free of Virus/Malware
    All this happened early last week.
    On Friday of last week the customer called me to say he had intermittent problems where the machine would start sometimes and sometimes wouldn't.
    Start fail meant it would go beyond the Welcome screen, but the Office would hang until he could use the machine, and then he could exercise a strong offshore and restart.

    I made a visit, and as usual with intermittent problems the machine showed no defects.
    I ran HiJackThis and could not see anything in the paper that pointed to more malware.

    Today the customer asked me to watch the machine he was not starting properly.

    What is happening now is the machine starts, gets past the opening screen, plays the startup sound and displays its normal wallpaper.
    However, there are no icons on the desktop and the taskbar is non-existent. Make a right click on the desktop will not bring a menu, and if I plug a USB it does not show one menu AutoPlay.
    The screensaver comes in after 10 minutes I thought it should and the task manager can be started with Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
    If I boot safe mode all I get is a black screen with notifications of Mode without fail to every corner of the screen and nothing else.

    Outside of the machine is not not usable it tells me that the machine correctly but does not show what it should.
    Can someone let me know what is the best way to go from here.

    I have supported Linux systems for three years so a command line is not a problem.

    Ah, the operating system is Windows XP Home SP2 (sorry)

    Mike

    If your customer has used the power button, the system of NT (NTFS) files may be slightly damaged.

    You must first run a chkdsk/r of a real installation of XP bootable XP Recovery Console or a bootable XP Recovery Console CD you can do (no XP media required) and be sure the file system is clean.

    Since you are able to get into the Task Manager, take a look at the processes tab to see if explorer.exe is running.

    If explorer.exe does NOT work, this is the reason why your office is (probably) just to show a background image.  The explorer.exe IS your way.  If explorer.exe is not running, all you will see is the background image.

    If explorer.exe does not work, see if you can start it manually as follows:

    In Task Manager, click file, new task, and in the Open box, enter:

    %windir%\explorer.exe

    Click OK and see if get you your office.  Of course explorer.exe must always be running.  If this isn't the case, you need to understand what the problem is and fix it.

    If you have removed the malware, what applications did you use?

    I would recommend this at some point:

    Download, install, update and do a full scan with these free malware detection programs:
    Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://malwarebytes.org/
    SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/
    They can be uninstalled later if you wish.
  • Several questions after restart explorer.exe

    I have several questions after I ended the process explorer.exe and reopened. "Ctrl + Alt + Delete" only opens the Task Manager (and neither do "Ctrl + Shift + Esc"), the level of the battery is displayed on my taskbar, my wallpaper mysteriously changed, etc.

    What happened in detail was:

    My taskbar was hidden behind a window I had open. For example, if I open the Chrome, Chrome window cover at the bottom of my screen, with the taskbar behind it. The taskbar was NOT to hide and minimize. So, I took the advice to restart my explorer.exe. However this is not going smoothly. I couldn't bring up the task in any Manager. I could not even restart my computer. The only thing I could do was click on the space bar, which makes "click on" my browser Chrome which was open at the time. This allowed me to open a task manager with control of Chrome ONLY. Chrome, I've navigated to C:/.../explorer.exe and double clicked on it. I got my taskbar and the office back, although very distorted. Now, there are still a lot of questions I need to recover from. I think it might be a problem starting some .exe that could somehow have disabled. I would be happy to provide any additional information.

    This is a safe operation restart explorer.exe. Your catalogue of failures suggest that you have some fundamendal problems. I would like to use the system restore to go as far as I could. If that fails to solve the problems, then I'd go for a destructive factory restore.

  • Black screen - cannot run Explorer.exe with Task Manager

    Hi guys

    I've been Googling the answer to that for the last day and nothing seemed to work.

    Basically, my portable was working fine until this morning, when I restarted. After the home screen, just a rear screen with the mouse. CTRL ALT DEL and everything still works normally. I can run programs with the Task Manager, but can not run explorer.exe. He returned in the process for about 10 seconds then disappears. I think that it is the cause of the black screen. I tried downloading an own explorer.exe and replace the explorer.exe in C:\Windows\. My computer it did not as he said I need the permission of the administrator, but of course, I am the Admin so I don't know what that's all.
    I tried to restart in Mode safe and that works very well, still, I can't replace the explorer.exe in the C:\Windows\ because I do not have the administrative authorization. I tried to change it in the Security tab of the properties, or impossible.
    I also tried to update the driver software graphics cards, checked the Shell in the registry value and made sure it's explorer.exe, used the difficulty of black of Pevx screen, used HitmanPro and Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool to scan and remove malware. I even did a scf/scannow, checked driver C a mistake (which took 3 hours!), let Windows Startup Repair to fix things, tried a system restore but failed. He says that the anti-virus (Sophos) prevented the restoration of the system, so I've temporarily disabled its access scanning on but still unable to restore to a previous (11/01). Program changes that recent such as listed in the system restore is Google + Auto BackUp who came when set Picasa to date there 3 days and a more recent version of Facebook video call I've ever used. I am now running a scan with Sophos, not too promising.
    So yes, I tried everything. I think that now, there are only three options:

    1 somehow replace the explorer.exe in C:\Windows\ with this new cool explorer.exe, which I downloaded, with the permission of the administrator
    2. try another restore of the system, but I'm sure that nothing will happen, already tried three times.
    3 reinstall Windows 7 Edition Home Premium. It will be a real pain.

    So please help me! I have courses of due on Monday and this portable do not let me what that be done. Thank you!!!

    Please ignore the other my long answer. The problem has now been resolved.

    After trying all kind of scans, drinking and sobbing, I came across TDSS Killer from Kaspersky, who managed to catch a 1 latest unique malicious software (that I was too stupid and really looked hopeless and remember the name of), it cures the problem after reboot. Now, the laptop works well like you wouldn't believe. I'm still confused but way too happy now to care. Thanks a lot for your help nevertheless!
  • Windows 7: Explorer.exe does not start but if manually run it restarts my laptop.

    My laptop HP Probook 4530 s boots until the Welcome screen, it does not continue to show the desktop instead, it shows only a black screen.
