Explorer.EXE error after the restoration of the ERD Commander

Dell Inspiron B130

Windows XP Service Pack 2

Recently performed a HD format and new installation of XP SP2. After I installed all the drivers and others, I checked that the system was operating normally. After a few days of use, Windows Update downloaded Service Pack 3 and asked me to install. I started to install SP3, but at about 50%, the laptop battery is dead at Midway through the installation. I plugged the laptop on the power source and power. I restarted the laptop and XP started only a completely black screen and the white slider. No ALT + CTRL + DEL, desktop icons, etc.

I rebooted the laptop of ERD Commander, ran the restore system and selected the first available Restore Point. Point of restoration chosen was recorded a few days before, and was the first recorded point after the clean installed XP. I rebooted the XP system. Wallpaper loaded with white cursor, but NO start menu or desktop icon. A message appears saying "Explorer.EXE Application error, press OK to exit the application" or something very similar. Did not write the error code, but can get if necessary. If I press the OK button (which is my only option), there is still no icons on the desktop or the start menu. Only the cursor. No access ALT + CTRL + DELETE or something like that.

Thinking about completely wipe the system and reinstalls the operating system. Any suggestions before I jump in this solution?

Explorer.EXE error after the Restore Point of ERD Commander. Dell Inspiron B130. Recently clean installed XP SP2 on laptop. Installation of SP3, to 50%, battery dies the laptop right in the middle of the installation of the SP3 update. Restarted, XP starts with black screen with cursor only. ERD restart order and restore XP to the last known good config (I choose point immediately after XP clean install). Reboot to XP. Now the wallpaper shows as well as the error message saying "Explorer.exe Application error, click OK to exit Explorer" dialog and then I can't access anything. Any ideas?

Hello

What is the full and exact error message?

Step 1: Check if you are able to boot into safe mode without any problem. If you are able to boot into safe mode without any problems then try to perform the clean boot to safe mode. Also disconnect any external devices connected to the computer.

    Thanks for posting on the Microsoft answers Forum.  The first thing that I would suggest you do is run the System File Checker.  The link below will provide information on this tool.  You want to run the "SFC/scannow" option  You will need your XP CD for this tool in case we need to correct all files.

    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.

    I also have error of Application Explorer.exe the Instruction "0x7c911689" referenced memory at "0 x 04180000", the memory could not be 'read' click OK to terminate the program, click CANCEL to debug the program

    Good.

    Not sure what it is yet, but you know what it is not.

    I don't know what to think of your permissions problem, but if records are read-only and not meant to be, are you not able to change the folder properties and what happens when you try to do?

    When the Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) is wrong (especially when right click), begin to suspect third-party add-ons explore extension.

    Those who would be the Explorer extensions that do not belong to Microsoft.  This means that extensions that you have added.  Solution Explorer extensions are generally well and installation of certain applications will install extensions from Explorer solutions for you, give you a choice and sometimes they can be added without your knowledge when you install the new software.

    Solution Explorer extensions are sometimes added as a new right-click option, you see on folders and files (like the scan of this file, open that file, play this song).

    If there is something in particular that you do during exploration that you know will be the cause of the problem, which will help focus on the problem and the help that you suddenly know, when you have found and corrected.  If you can get there when you want it, make an adjustment and then there is no message the next time you don't do anything, you do, you have found and corrected.

    First of all you need a way to see what modules explore you have installed now and a way to turn them off (not uninstall them) so you can understand that we are at the origin of the problem.  You can have a lot of extensions not installed Microsoft don't even know you about.

    Download ShellExView here to see what Explorer extensions you have loaded:

    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/shexview.html

    ShellExView does not install anything on your computer, simply of runs and displays.

    After launching ShellExView, under Options, choose "Mark non-Microsoft Extensions" and extensions not Microsoft will be pink, clear, but on some systems which is a difficult color to see, so click on display, choose the columns and move the column Microsoft closer to the top, so you can see on your screen without having to scroll left and right.

    Click on the column header for Microsoft sort display (by clicking on the column of Microsoft) then all the non Microsoft extensions are on top and easy to see.

    Non-Microsoft extensions would be things you have added (non-Microsoft) and are what you should be suspect.

    You can also Google the name of a suspect add-on and see if there is any success on the mistakes of the DEP and what other people have done about it.
    You can Google something like:

    Explorer XP crashing (you must fill in the name of add your suspect on.)

    See what kind of search results hits you get and are looking for solutions or situations that sound like yours.

    I'm not a defender of trial and error, but I can't think of another way to do...

    Right click and disable the non Microsoft extensions one at a time (or maybe in groups of 3-5), keep a list, so you can enable them again later if you wish. The result of the change is immediate and no reboot is necessary.  Test your failure condition.  If the Explorer starts to act normally, you'll know that some extension you just disabled in this group of 3-5 is the culprit, then you can start to enable them one by one until the Explorer fails again.

    If you recognize all the extensions that have been added or recently downloaded, start with these first.

    Disabling the extension does not uninstall the extension - it is just disabled.

    Disable them one at a time or in small groups (to make things go faster) until your right click does not generate an error, and then restart and try again.  You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious.

    You can also just disable all non-Microsoft extensions, restart and allow them one at a time until you find the one that generates the condition.

    If you have a large number of extensions, you can disable them is small groups, 3-5 at a time instead of 1 at a time until your system starts to behave.  When it does not, you will know that the problem is one of the extensions of this small group and you can enable members of the Group at a time until the problem returns, then the problem is with the last extension that you enabled.

    The hope is that you will find an extension that caused the error, and then you can figure out what on this subject - either uninstall it or see if you can get an update of the author of the extension of their web page.

    I have not your problem, but I can when you toggle extensions, the extension is immediately disabled, so disable an extension does not seem to require a restart, but if you think that you have found the problem, I reboot and repeat the test in any case to be sure the problem disappeared.

    If you post your non-Microsoft extensions list, maybe someone will recognize it as a potential problem.

    If you find the offending extension that's the problem, please let us know what it is that I can add to my list.

  • Windows 7: chain explorer.exe endlessly about the file type association

    Today I tried to .jar archives open as files compressed by default instead of running in Java on opening. My first guess on how to proceed was with C:/Windows/explorer.exe, and I did it by r-click on a .jar file, select open with > choose default program... then by navigating to the explorer.exe directory and check the "always use the selected program to open this type of file."

    This is where it goes horribly wrong. Apparently, Windows Explorer cannot say himself to open a file with itself. When I try to open a .jar file that is set to open with Windows Explorer, an endless loop of explorer.exe (in thousands) process starts one after the other, until I have run out of memory. To get rid of them, I have to restart.
    Subsequently, the checkbox "Always use the selected program to open this kind of file" is grayed out, so I can't restore the association to its original. Using the command "assoc = CompressedFile .jar ' is as useless."
    How to restore the original file .jar extension association? Also, to solve my original problem, how can I make Windows opens files .jar and folders compressed instead of using Java.exe?

    I know that the default handler for ZIP is not an executable file directly, but it should be possible to associate with other types.  Filetype associations have two parts: a type of file that describes the file, like "file of Adobe Reader.  Then, who is paired with the type manager who actually links to the actions associated with the opening of this kind.

    For jar files to open with the same manager as ZIP, only one side of this pair should be changed in the registry, the .jar extension.  But I wouldn't really recommend a do it manually because of the potential problems of editing the registry.  Set a restore point or backup of the registry, then try the following steps - at your own risk/peril :)
    • Look at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zip and see the structure.  Note that it says .zip is CompressedFolder.
    • Knowing this, look at HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CompressedFolder.  Here you can see the actual command used to open these files (as well as the "friendly display name' which is used to describe these files when you hover over them and others).
    • For JAR files to do the same, you just change the .jar entry, then set it to the default CompressedFolder type.  Who told him to use the same settings as CompressedFolder.
