• File Explorer Windows 8 crashes whenever I do a right click on the USB key.

  File Explorer Windows 8 crashes every time I do a right click on installed - everything - USB or flash key and try to choose options, such as format, rename them or properties.  Windows Explorer crashes, closed its doors, and I'm sent back to the Start Page.  This happens with any USB key, on one of the ports on my computer, which I have at least 10.

  I can left click on USB in the file Explorer, and held one still able to open or interact with any file in the USB. I can save to the USB port of any other program, and I can usually eject it in the taskbar. The only problem is I can't do a right click on the USB key and select a function without kicks back to the start page and the file Explorer is restarted.

  My version of Windows 8 is an upgrade to Windows 7.  I have already tried a restart secure, and even in this State, the accident continues.

  I had the same problem with any flash/stick/key USB on my system (64-bit) Windows 8 Pro. I started out of the blue, had not installed a new software or updates. I couid do a right-click on the drive and get the menu, but any action in the menu I chose stop and restart Windows Explorer (without any error message.) I also tried the cleanboot approach with no luck.

  The solution that worked was to move the mouse to the bottom left of the screen and right click.
  Select prompt (Admin)
  in the cmd window, type:
  sfc/scannow
  and press ENTER.
  After about 15 minutes (about 4 minutes to check and then a little more than 11 minutes waiting while he was working in the background - but it seemed frozen. My system is an i7, 16 GB of Ram, 512 GB SSD drive - so your time may vary), I received a message that some corrupt files had been repaired and some had not. The newspaper was in a txt file in C:\Windows\Logs\CBS if the log file was inaccessible. I got a popup access denied .
  I rebooted the system and everything was fine and the problem of USB has been fixed.

• Cannot drag and drop a png file from File Explorer Windows 10 in an open file in Photoshop CS3.

  Hello

  I can't drag and drop a png file from File Explorer Windows 10 in an open file in Photoshop CS3.  I'm able to do that in Illustrator CS3 and am wondering if there is a fix for this or is just not possible.

  I know others who claim that they are able to cela and would appreciate any help to find the solution, if it exists, like many, many hours to research and trials have failed.

  Thanks in advance.

  Hi davep91520459,

  I just installed PS CS 3 on my machine and tested, windows 7 and it seems that you can't drag and drop the image to another image in PS CS 3, it opens a new document, so I guess it is supposed to work like this, and this feature was introduced in the later version of PS.

• Look a DNG in the file Explorer Windows 8.1 as the image thumbnails... How to proceed?

  Does anyone know why you can't display RAW .dng thumbnails of image files in the file Explorer Windows 8.1 even with the Microsoft Camera Codec Pack installed.

  Other RAW files appear as thumbnails without problem (e.g. Nikon. NEF files). I could see dng thumbnails in Windows 7, but not with Windows 8.1. Perhaps, Adobe did not share the appropriate information. for Microsoft to get there?

  See if you know how to see the dng thumbnails and can help me to do the same.

  Michael

  I know this thread is a bit old, but sometimes 2nd research google (15/07/15).

  This Adobe DNG Codec works in point 8.1.  Its slow generate thumbnails, as against cr2 but works.

• In Windows 7, I wonder how I can delete my history folder in the file Explorer window. There are folders there appears no longer exist.

  Looking at my history of folder in Windows 7, I see some files that no longer exist on my PC, but still appear in my story.  I would like to know how to get rid of them.  I tried to look in the internet options, as deleting the history of IE is the closest thing to you that I could find, but there is nothing there to affect the file Explorer.  Also, I couldn't find anything in the folder for this options.

  Hi DaNorm,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Answers community.

  Go to the following location on your computer and delete the contents of the historical record. And then check if your problem is resolved.

  C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\History

  AppData is a hidden folder, so you will need to follow the steps below to view it.

  1. Click Start and then click computer.

  2. click on tools (if you are unable to see Tools option, and then press the ALT key on the keyboard).

  3. Select folder options.

  4. on the view tab, select Show hidden files and folders (in advanced settings)

  5. now click on the Ok button.

• FILE EXPLORER Windows 10 does not work

  I upgraded from windows 7 Home Windows 10. Everything worked for three months. Now my file manager does not work. If I double click on a shortcut, nothing happens. No message or errors, no feedback at all. If I select file from the menu 10 windows Explorer it lists recent locations, but if I click on anything that it is once more the window closes and no feedback of any kind. To access my files, I have to go well as the search for application files. Is no more, I can add folders or improve my organization of files. Of course he used to work so I guess it has become corrupt. What do we do to fix this problem, I see, it is a common problem in looking at the forums for microsoft, but no one said a suggested fix worked.

• Find the file Explorer window

  File Browser window came when accidentally hit keyboard in Vista and XP. How can I bring up Explorer again?  She has Windows watermark on it. Here is the screenshot of the file browser window:

  There is no keyboard shortcut command in Vista to make appear this http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Keyboard-shortcutsfile browser.  I could not find any reference to the file anywhere Explorer (not not even Microsoft if you say ITI carried the logo).-I don't think it comes with Vista (even though it may have carried over from earlier versions if you upgraded to Vista).  Maybe you have installed other software that provides this feature but I have no idea how recrete it or access it.

  Try going to start / find and grabs the file browser and see if you get hits.

  In the case otherwise, you'll just have to hope make you this soul "error" again, but this time realize what you were doing, so you can access it again.

• File Explorer Windows 8 crashes often

  I have two new 8 PC under Windows - purchased separately, for the office and a laptop - desktop and both have the same problem with the file Explorer: fails.

  File Explorer looks incredibly unstable, that it crashes several times a day, sometimes several times after another while doing a simple copy/paste.
  The full desktop gray out and restarts.
  I don't know that there is no solution to this because I think that Windows 8 has not matured and he feels buggy Vista, but all suggestions are welcome.

  Hi PA_Rush,

  Have you installed new software that may have created a Manager right click context menu?

  By your description of the problem that the software may have been software to view the photos.

  If so, uninstall this software or disable Management menu for the context of the software.

  If you are not sure about the software the following link has some info and download ShellExView you can use to selectively disable third-party management context menus to find a problem:

  http://WindowsXP.MVPs.org/slowrightclick.htm

  You can try to disable all managers of context menus not Microsoft and then, if the problem resolves to reactivate them one at a time to see what the problem was.

• Explorer Windows stopped working when opening a folder

  Hello

  I get this error "Windows Explorer has stopped working" for the past few months, every time I try to open a particular folder that contains 10-15 .avi files. This folder is located on an external hard drive and when I plugged the hard drive of a computer running XP it's the same thing. It throws this error and gives me 2 options,

  1. check online for a solution and restart the program.

  2. restart the program.

  According to the option that I chose it closes all the windows in the Solution Explorer, and nothing happens.

  I tried to copy the file from external hard disk to the local computer and the same thing happens when I try to access it. I don't think that's the problem with my computer as the same thing happens also on the XP machine.

  Please suggest what to do.

  Vista and Windows 7 updated drivers love then here's how update the most important.

  This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

  This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

  -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system.
  For each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver,
  Description, version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
  http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

  For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
  Control Panel - device - Graphics Manager - note the brand and complete model
  your video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now, click on update
  Driver (this can do nothing as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then right-click.
  Uninstall - REBOOT it will refresh the driver stack.

  Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party
  with their own software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Always check in the Device Manager - drivers tab to be sure the version you actually install
  presents itself. This is because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (sound card drivers
  in particular that) so to install a driver - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat as
  necessary.

  Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW in the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER device - check
  manually by model.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

• Search for the file Explorer: Windows 7

  I know that I am probably post again a question has been asked hundreds of times before... But the research question of Windows 7 even been taken down like a real fault? There is no other way I can see to ask this question outside not be re-directed to a forum looking for answers, then see frustration of countless other users, so I put back on with a new post.

  I wrote a test and training post to possibly one of the largest universities in the United Kingdom and my role of testing software noting flaws and then decide whether it should be rolled out and then reap the benefits of its use.

  All other packages had small defects but none of which has a few advantages outweigh

  I literally user acceptance tested search to death and read dozens of user help guides on indexing. The more generic computer users is the admin rights/time/support or the know how to do that on a large number of readers huge network.

  In short, I guess the question I ask is when users want to find a file by name, why they are not getting the results they are looking for and if it is a question of indexation why?

  Help me to Microsoft, you're my only hope.

  Search has changed over the years. Modern versions of Windows have so many files that the default search will filter all files it think users don't want to see. It works fine most of the time, but if a user starts using non-standard file types can cause an immense amount of frustration.

  It is always nice to have alternatives to the risk of re - direct you once again here is even more:

• Premiere Pro sometimes crashes when you open a file Explorer window

  Hello

  I've had this problem for a while now but have never been able to find a solution. Basically if I use something within Premiere Pro that opens a Windows Explorer dialog box (for example, when you choose a custom LUT), the program sometimes goes a little crazy.

  The dialog boxes is not pop up and the program becomes unclickable. And when you try to click on what, whether it gives it its particular of Windows. That occurs when you use a program and a dialog box has popped up and you try to click outside the dialog box.

  In the past, if I tried to end task and then cancelled, the program will open. However, with the last update things became different. It unlock again, but the program does funny things as it won't save. It does not update the video window when you rub. Etc., basically it becomes unusable and you will need to complete the task without being able to save your work.

• File Explorer Windows 8 cannot remember window size

  Is it too ask Microsoft to send us a fix in a simple update?

  I think you'd have a hard time to convince them. It is not a broken fix, capacity was cut very intentionally because of the intensive what it was. Storing a value in each folder for all users, was overwhelming registry and networks as the available user storage is mounted exponentially higher with storage on disk at little cost. Instead of a 5-10 GB drive of Windows 2000, readers are closing hundreds of times greater (and more of course in enterprise environments). Somewhere, there is a blog of the engineering team that cut this feature. I'll try to find it.

  Excuse my thumb I typed this on my phone.

• Explorer Windows Vista refuses to rename the folder
