Guard Windows Explorer to crash and restart on Windows 7

I use a Dell Vostro V13 laptop. Last night suddenly kept windows Explorer crashing and restarting over and over to the point where I can't do anything. I tried the system restore, but the problem is still there. I can't do anything except the exit ramp of the computer with Ctrl + alt + delete. As soon as the restart my laptop the message back and he stops and restarts over and over again.

I am only able to send this message in SafeMode where the problem occurs.
I'm not very computer literate, so would be grateful for a detailed step by step help.
(One of the reasons could be that I tried to update media player VLC, this accident occurred just after that.) I uninstalled VLC but with no avail, explore it crash)

It is clear the details of the second error problem is the DivXMFSource.dll:

Fault Module name: DivXMFSource.dll

Fault Module Version: 1.0.0.72

Timestamp of Module error: 4cffcf66

The DivXMFSource.dll is a component of DivX software.

Uninstall of DivX software should fix the error.

You are able to do safe mode?

If not go to the DivX program folder and right-click the DivXMFSource.dll and rename the extension .dll to .old, IE rename DivXMFSource.dll in DivXMFSource.old.

Restart the computer in Normal Mode and uninstall DivX.

Here is the location of the DivXMFSource.dll to rename:

If 64-bit Windows 7:

C:\Program Files (x 86) \DivX\DivX DivX Media Foundation Components\DivXMFSource.dll

If 32-bit Windows:

C:\Program DivX DivX and Media Foundation Components\DivXMFSource.dll

  • Windows Explorer Ramdomly stops and restarts.

    Whenever I'm reviewing my files, be it on the C or D drive, windows Explorer randomly crashes and restarts, happened for a while now and I have no idea what causes it. However I noticed that happen when navigation control panel or searching for a file/location, for example, when I'm looking for a file to attach to an e-mail or by selecting a destination for the download of a file. It is really annoying because sometimes I have to move and copy files and Windows Explorer just throws me and I will once again to the location of the folder. I tried in safe mode, it happens again, but in fact it does not restart, it just closes and I have to open it again through Manager tasks, often crashing the Manager of the tasks, all in safe mode. I also tried the clean boot and continues to be, and sfc/scannow told me that corrupted files have been found but unable to fix, and I have no idea how to proceed.

    (1) run chkdsk as follows:

    A prompt by right clicking and select "Run as Administrator"
    and then at the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f r, then press the Enter key.

    If you are asked to plan the volume to check the next time that the system/PC reboots,
    Enter: y

    Now, restart the PC.

    Keep an eye on the screen and watch to see if errors are reported.

    If you know the manufacturing of your hard drive you can also download their diagnostic software.

  • My computer crashes and restarts with windows xp but it does not occur with any other OS

    When I use windows XP, 2000, ME, 98 in my computer (Dell latitude D600) it crashes and restarts all of a sudden. But when I installed winodws vista, 7 or ubuntu it will never happen.

  • When I try to add to quick launch Explorer stops working and restarts. It used to work fine.

    I drag or right-click and click "Add to quick launch" windows Explorer stopped working and restart. It used to work fine but no has not for a while since an update.

    It could be a problem of shell extensions. These shell extensions are responsible for creating the options you will see in the menu when you right click on a file using Windows Explorer.

    Troubleshooting Windows Explorer errors
    http://www.HelpWithWindows.com/techfiles/Explorer-crashes.html

    The ShellExView is a stand-alone executable. It does not require any installation or additional dll process. Simply copy it to any folder you want, then run. Once you run it, wait a few seconds until ShellExView charge all shell extensions.

    The rule is to turn off non-Microsoft extensions. Click on the "Type" column, you will now see the context menus in the group. Now, try to disable all non - Microsoft Shortcut Menus (with light pink background) and see if the problem goes away. If it has been re - activate the context Menu one by one by checking every time if the problem returns until you got the culprit.

  • Explorer.exe stops and restarts constantly - I have a solution but its only temporary.

    Had no problems with Windows 7 for a year. Then recently explorer.exe stops and restarts repeatedly, over and over again each 5-10secs. Our Event Viewer error is a .dll module in User\User blame name\Apps\Local\, called eciwavatebiwe.dll. I find this .dll and when I rename the judgment falls down, but instead I raise an alert at startup that windows does not find this file (I click just the red x).

    I used virus and sfc/scannow ladies, but no error reported.

    The file in question announced swapper Windows NT caps lock ctrl but Googling is not this .dll anywhere.

    Any ideas what going on?

    eciwavatebiwe.dll is a virus what I see. Remove it and start regedit.exe and findeciwavatebiwe.dll and delete everything you find.

    Also scan your system with your scanner, AntiVirus and Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php).

  • iPad Air keeps crashing and restarting

    Why my iPad Air keep crashing and restarting in Safari? I also think other applications. iOS 9.3.2 must be the culprit because it never happened so often. Any solution?

    Go to settings - Safari - clear the history and data from the Web site.

    If that doesn't work, reset your device. This will not erase your data stored on the phone.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

    Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

    Hi Dale.Johnston,

    Overheating would be a typical pattern of this behavior. I mean, that's if the laptop has a higher internal temperature and it will immediately fit to protect the equipment. Then it the normal behavior of s from overheating.

    Overheating may have different reasons. In most cases it's dust that blocks the fan. This would mean that you have to clean the cooling system of your laptop using the jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans.

    Generally, it should help. If this isn't the case, I would check the display driver. What display driver and operating system you are using?
    If you install the display driver Toshiba not they can also cause overheating if it recommendable s using Toshiba pretested drivers only. ;)
