• IE8 causing explorer.exe to freeze

  Original title: need to constantly end explorer.exe and restart after using IE8 because I can't click on the desktop icons

  About 5 times a day I have to end the explorer.exe process, then start it again because I can't click on my desktop icons.  I also started having a problem with my IE8 does not correctly load JAVA (maybe too much flash).  The program hangs and I have to go into the Task Manager and terminate IE8 or wait for narrow reboot or wait so that he can answer window to get to the end and restart the program.

  These could be two different issues, but it seems that after IE8 crashes so I have to end explorer.exe.  Unable to click on the desktop icons began before IE8 problems, but are increasing in frequency and seem to be coinciding most often.

  Can someone help me?  I run my Microsoft Security Essentials antivirus program. I tried to clean a disk and defragmentation, but neither helped.

  Thank you

• 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

  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.

  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.

• Explorer.exe causes high CPU usage!

  Hi, recently I added new music for my laptop, including both .mp3 and .wav files. As such, I discovered spikes in my use of a CPU
  slow from 3% to 63% and more. After research, I came to realized that when a corrupted .wav files containing folder is opened, Windows Explorer calls the Media Foundation (Mf.dll) function to retrieve the metadata of the .wav files. However, Mf.dll function enters an infinite loop during extraction of metadata.

  However, only those files are accessible so high use of the processor occurs if, and after that I reload it would return to normal at rest 3%
  Research led me to discover that Microsoft has a hotfix.exe application that would help me solve my problem on the other hand, it is not currently available.
  Is there anyway that I can fix this?

  Hello

  Thanks for posting the question on Microsoft Community Forums.

  According to the description, you have the .wav files damaged in a folder on a computer that is running Windows 7.

  You have the third-party codecs installed on the computer?

  This problem can also occur if you have the codecs installed on the computer and could not play the files.

  Method 1:

  Are you referring to this same fix article:

  High utilization of the processor in the Explorer.exe process when you open a folder with .wav files corrupted in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/976417

  It indicates that the fix is available and you can download and install.

  Method 2:

  If the problem persists, perform the check and scan SFC.

  Try scanner SFC [SFC system] on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

• Right click on (some) files causes crash/restart explorer.exe

  Someone help with this one?

  In the last two days, my explore crashes whenever I do a right click on a folder (rename or get properties, etc.)

  However, it is always odd.

  If I click Start > computer, I see the list of files, etc. and readers network I'm connected to. TreeView on the left in the components of the right files.

  Fault, click in the pane left Local disk C, the right pane then shows AMD, inetpub progdata etc., as usual. If I right click on a folder in the right pane, I see the long popup that allows me to remove, rename, open, or view the properties, it's good.

  If I right-click a folder in the left pane and right click on "Windows Explorer has stopped working", it reboots. Why is this happening?

  doing a scannow - nothing reported.

• Explorer.exe problem

  Shortly after the start, a process called "explorer.exe" starts to consume 100% of my cpu.  In order to run programs, I have to disable this process.  The programs then run fine, except that now, when you have finished, I have to turn off my computer and restart.    I ran Webroot anti-virus and anti-spyware, antivirus and antispyware, cccleaner Trendmicro and Registercure.   None of them have found no problem.  Vista Home on an Emachine.

  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 Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
  video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
  cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
  This will refresh the driver stack.

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

  Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
  (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the 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 - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
  because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
  pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

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

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

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
  This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
  questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
  manually if you wish.

  Recently and I have no idea why, "explorer.exe" becomes "unresponsive" at random times when I use my Dell Inspiron 1750 running a 64 bit version of Windows 7 Home Premium.

  Think about it an absolute must - manually update your drivers.

  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.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods above
  It is preferable to ensure that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are located)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver under Windows
  Updates, that leaves about Windows updates but it will not install the drivers that will be generally
  older and cause problems. If updates offers a new driver and then HIDE it (right click on it), then
  get new manually if you wish.

  ===========================================

  Refer to these discussions because many more excellent advice however don't forget to check your antivirus
  programs, the main drivers and BIOS update and also solve the problems with the cleanboot method
  first.

• How to keep virtualization Explorer.exe

  Hello team VMware,

  I hope that this forum is still active, although the good old Thinapp is not really a single package more.

  Currently, I encountered a problem with Thinapp:

  
  With all my, until now virtualized, packages, process explore is also virtualized.
  How this happens to you, you might ask?
  I virtualized Dropbox and Firefox (for example), when I double click on the DropBox icon, I get an explorer.exe virtualized and not my computer.

  Now with DropBox, it is not really a problem, but with Firefox it is.
  Whenever I download something with Firefox and I run download from Firefox, the download will open virtualized.

  If the download is a Setup for any software package, the software will be installed in the sandbox (somehow).

  What I am doing wrong? Is this behavior by default?
  How can I work around this?

  Thank you for the information!

  Hello..

  This forum is alive and well...

  I'm sorry to say, but you have not virtualized Explorer. You can prove it by activating the entry of cmd.exe and run explorer.exe. Can now drag you outside of the virtual environment and see only the physical content. Why is this? This is because explorer.exe is already running in mode native and default, you are not allowed to launch a new instance of it. In order to preserve the RAM it reuses the existing process and the only launch a new window. You can force a new instance (and thus to run explorer.exe virtualized) following this blog: Running explorer.exe inside the bubble. VMware ThinApp Blog - Articles of VMware

  In your case you are much more likely to have been hit by the fact that ThinApp launches all the treated child almost by default. This allows for greater compatibility of applications and really nothing, you need to change. If you know from the start what you want to exclude this default behavior, you can use the parameter called package.ini:

  [BuildOptions]

  ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions = NameOfProcess.exe

  If you want to force all child processes that will be launched outside the virtual environment use this parameter in package.ini:

  [BuildOptions]

  ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault = external

  Just a word of warning. Change the default behavior might make your package to fail. Several times, all processes must run in the same environment.

  One thing that could be causing your problem is the Modes of insulation as well... You could be in sandbox all your Dropbox files. It is probably not what you want... Please take a look at this post from video of KB for a detailed description of the universe of the Modes of insulation: methods of insulation agreement in VMware ThinApp | Insider - Articles from VMware VMware support

• Explorer.exe error of Application the Instruction at '0x7c910ed2' referenced memory at 0x03ede088.

  always get this when I try to open certain files? any suggestion will be good?

  Explorer.exe error of Application the Instruction at "0x7c910ed2" referenced memory at "0x03ede088", the memory could not be 'read' click OK to terminate the program, click CANCEL to debug the program

  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.

  According to the description, it looks like you are facing a problem with the Windows XP operating system.

  It would be great if you could answer these questions to help you further.

  1. When you receive this error message, Explorer.exe Application error the instruction at "0x5ad8c78d" referenced memory at "0x082c9c7". The memory can be 'read '?

  2 is the issue limited only to Neowin patch installation?

  There could be a conflict of memory with a driver or due to the bad memory or memory.

  I recommend you to check with the activation status of Windows XP.

  a. Click Start.

  b. click on all programs, then accessories.

  c. click System Tools.

  d. click on activate Windows.

• How to fix explorer.exe from constant grave failure?

  AppName: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.5512 ModName: unknown<><  is="" the="" error="" code="" it="" gives.="" it="" crashes="" when="" usually="" when="" i="" try="" to="" open="" or="" rename="" a="" file="" with="" a="" long="" name,="" or="" there="" are="" files="" with="" long="" names="" in="" the="" folder. ="" running="" xp="" sp3="" on="" a="" dell="" dimension="">

  First, you must run some respectable malware scanners to try to reduce the risk of malware infection.

  Secondly, you should tell us about your system.

  Thirdly, if the Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer) crashes when you right-click on a file or folder, the problem usually happens as a shell extension for Explorer that you added some third-party programs or an extension of the Explorer shell that could be added without your knowledge.

  Explorer shell extensions make up right click menu when you right-click things (such as open, rename, etc) and there are a lot of extensions to explore afflicted that can cause an accident.  I hope you're able to repeat this crash when you want by doing something that you do.  If you can do explore crash when you want, it is usually easy to understand the problem.

  You don't describe symptoms suggestive of a need to run the System File Checker, but of course, you can if you wish, but note that if you have a genuine XP installation CD bootable with the same Service Pack as your installed Service (most people don't), the System File Checker will complain - much.

  No matter what you use for malware protection, follow these steps:

  Download, install, update and do a quick scan (not at the same time) with these free malware detection programs:
  Malwarebytes (MMFA): http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
  SUPERAntiSpyware: (SAS): http://www.superantispyware.com/

  SAS will probably be just a bunch of Internet tracking cookies, but you can remove them.  Once you have done at least a full analysis, you can do quick scans in the future to save time and save the analyses complete for when you have more time or are really suspicious of an infection of the system.

  They can be uninstalled later if you wish.

  Since the implementation of the Microsoft Answers forum does not ask for any kind of information system when a new question is asked, we know absolutely nothing about your system.  Not knowing the basic information a problem prolongs the frustration and the agony of these issues.

  Thank you MS Answers, allowing the resolution of simple problems as frustrating and a lot of time as possible.

  Provide information on your system, the better you can:

  What is your system brand and model?

  What is your Version of XP and the Service Pack?

  Describe your current antivirus and software anti malware situation: McAfee, Symantec, Norton, Spybot, AVG, Avira!, MSE, Panda, Trend Micro, CA, Defender, ZoneAlarm, PC Tools, Comodo, etc..

  What do you see (exactly) that you don't think you should see, and when you see it?

  What do not you think that you should see?

  If the system works, what do you think might have changed since the last time it did not work properly?

  Now the fun part:

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

  Disable them one at a time until your right click on do not generate an error, then restart and test again to make sure the changes 'stick '.  You have disabled the last extension would be suspicious.
