• Windows Explorer hangs and crashes on (tried everything) video files

  So I've had this problem for awhile now and it does not seem to deteriorate. Every time I open a folder in Windows Explorer that contains video files (of any type), YOU start to have problems. The Green loading bar starts to take forever, or if that manages to load properly, then doing ANYTHING with these files will result in US gel and ends up crashing. No matter if it is just a right-click, trying to highlight, trying to move, try to remove or trying to open. They all get the same answer.

  Things I've tried and the results:

  -Set the folder options to never display thumbnails (bar is no longer a problem too bright green)

  -Set options folder for general documents

  -Tried to optimize files with videos to video

  -Switched back to General

  -Ran of virus/malware scans (clean)

  -Never allowed cache, the nooks and the crannies of unnecessary files

  -Uninstall unused programs on C:\ for free space

  -Defragged everything

  -Uninstalled and reinstalled each video player

  -Uninstalled and reinstalled all my codecs, as well some as superfluous jic

  -Have toggled between every possible program by default, VLC seems more reliable (see the note below VLC), Quicktime least WMP and DivX uneven at best

  -Ran msconfig and methodically unchecked/restarted and then double checked / restart all services and the start of the program (no change)

  -Ran SFC Scannow (no reported problem)

  -Booted safe mode (no difference, we HAVE still freezes on video files, don't say anything about the running server error)

  -Use a directory of third-party files (Q - dir) to access files, Q - dir froze after right click on videos

  -Use a video converter to convert videos between file types, now accessible but converted videos seems not to to material they are converted into - in addition, nonconverted original suddenly too much work very well, but ONLY those that are accessible by the converter

  -Used VLC to find and open the video files. Œuvres, but only one at a time, that is, if I try to open another video file after the first in the same window of VLC, VLC freezes. Need to close the program, and then reopen the program to open a new file without freezing. Recently opened files of VLC are accessible via Windows Explorer without freezing (note, the accessibility seems temporary, filed consulted with VLC a few days ago to return to the State unclickable).

  -Note on VLC: may seem to move and delete files using the VLC browser without problem, but ONLY before opening any file - after VLC must be closed and then reopened as previously reported

  And Yes, I turned it works several times.

  I feel that I've tried everything, and the problem seems to be growing. I feel like there must be a problem with the way that we, I don't know, compiling data on files or something, but I don't have enough background tech to get past this wave and completely unnecessary idea.

  Oddly enough, everything else on my computer is fine. Non-video-folder navigation is fine, no lag or freeze, programs starts quickly, internet connection is fine, browser videos play without problem and when I can get the video file plays on something they play very well - just good luck for their.

  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I'm about to tear my hair out.

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply.

  As you said you are not facing this problem to boot, it means that you are facing this problem due to a third-party application.

  If you are referring to the steps in the link below under 8.1 and Windows 8 Windows in 3 steps , after you check the box against hide all Microsoft services. You will see a list of non-Microsoft services, you need to check the cause of these services.

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135/en-us

  Uncheck half the service and check the rest of the half.  If you face the question yet, then it menas that you are facing this issue due to services that were not invalid.

  Hi HBrown Gordon,

  In order to focus more on your particular situation, I shared your post to a new thread.

  Please take a look at the following information through Wunders in a previous post:

  The work of Windows Explorer is to consider what is in the disk and its directory and present this information to the user.  If the disk or the disk directories are corrupted, it confuses Windows Explorer and can lead to lock.  Whenever Windows Explorer crashes, the first step should be to achieve a check disk (chkdsk) with the /f or/r option.

  "How to perform disk error in Windows XP check"
    <>http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315265 >

  Check disk can usually take hours depending on the speed and the size of the hard drive.  If corruption is present, it may take more time.  Plan on execution of the audit during the night or when you won't need your computer for awhile.  In addition, if corruption is present, files may be lost.  If possible, save what you can before you run the disk check.

  Hope that helps!

• Windows Explorer hangs in vista

  I use windows vista home edition and using widows Explorer to find files, etc, if there is a problem, that is to say wireless hub or permissions, then explore just hangs. Manager tasks cannot stop the Explorer, the only solution seems to be reset. Why I left XP? y at - it update?

  Hello Greensleeves2001,

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft answers Forum.

  Since Windows Explorer hangs when you perform a search to find files, it is possible that your search index may be corrupted or unusable. So, it is quite easy to rebuild the search index.

  Click on the start ORB, in the start search box, type index. Then select the Indexing Options of instant search, which will be at the top of the list.
  Click Advanced, and then select Rebuild to rebuild the index from scratch.

  This will take a while to complete, so don't choose not to do this if you are just finishing a task.

  If please reply back and let us know if it helped to solve your problem

  Sincerely,

• Windows Explorer crashes and get this error in the event log: maximum number of ATI EEU session has been exceeded

  Windows Explorer crashes and it is what I have in my event log. Can anyone help?

  Exceeded maximum number of ATI EEU session

  Hi TodFranklin,

  1. when exactly you receive this error message?

  2 did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  Follow the suggestions below for a possible solution:

  Method 1:

  Step 1: Start in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

  Start your computer in safe mode

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/start-your-computer-in-safe-mode

   

  Step 2: If the problem does not occur in safe mode, you can put your system to boot (in normal mode) to solve the problem.

   

  How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135

   

  Note: After troubleshooting, be sure to configure the computer to start as usual as mentioned in step 7 provided in the above article.

  Method 2: I also suggest that you scan your computer with the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

  http://www.Microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

   

  Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

  Important: During the scan of the hard drive if bad sectors are found, the scanner tries to repair this sector, all available on which data may be lost.

• Windows Explorer hangs if I right click on an application or a shortcut.

  I have Win7Professional 64-bit. When I right click on a file or application Windows Explorer crashes saying there is error of C ++ Runtime library. I tried to remove all components C++ and re-setup, clean boot and turn off all the components and reloading slowly, start etc and still the problem persists. I've seen several solutions to the widespread enough question, but none have worked for me. Any ideas?

  I tried running the command prompt SFC, but it says that I don't have administrative rights, what I'm doing.

  I found the keyboard shortcut for the file properties and create a shortcut can be a bit tedious but not insurmountable. It is the reflex of right-click on 'something' and zap, Windows Explorer crashes and restarts with limited functionality.

  As it is a problem for a number of users, anyone got something "simple"? I can't be disturbed in the reinstallation of Windows and the hassle or redo all applications, etc.

  Grateful for any help.

  The problem could be a problematic third-party context menu Manager part.

  The following link has some info and download ShellExView you can use to selectively disable third-party management context menus to find a problem:

  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.

• Windows 8 hangs and displays your pc encountered a problem and needs to be restarted!

  Hello

  I have 2 GB of ram on my pc and suddenly destroyed a half GB of ram and now I have 1.5 GB

  and since I was 1 .5Go ram my pc crashes after 15 to 20 minutes and showing the blue screen and restart

  whenever I use every 2-3 applications at the same time (or) a single application for a long time, it hangs and displays the blue screen and restart!

  I have seen that windows 8 shows the minimum ram is 1 GB and windows 8 running on my pc of a friend with only 1 GB with any errors!

  Help, please!

  These are the programs installed on my pc
  

  and this is using memory for all the 1 sec approximately

• When you pass "Windows Explorer" stopping and restarting. Only happening since I installed 9 Microsoft Updates, the update of Windows 8 December 2009. (Vista Ultimate SP2)

  Each week, I (manually) install the recommended update of Windows updates. I'm under IE8 too. Also running Microsift Security Essentials.
  Since the installation of updated 9 dec, (KB974318, 905866, 890830, 976416, 973917, 970430, 976325, 976884, 971737) 8, about 3 - 5 times a day, I click to open a folder, or click a link - I get a window saying "Windows Explorer has stopped working".  He says while it collects information, and then restart Windows Explorer.
  It happened this morning, as soon as I clicked on "Windows Update" icon of the button 'start '. It also occurs when the single click to open a folder on my desktop or inside another folder.

  I've also observed sometimes when you try to delete an important file (for example 300 MB) the deletion starts but seems to hang and ends not - even after 10 minutes or more.

  Before installing the latest batch of updates I have not seen these problems within 9 months I've been running this machine.
  Any ideas?

  I run McAfee anti virus and it is up-to-date.  I also ran SpyBot and PC Tools 36 hours - clean.
  Last night I ran as Microsoft on line scanners - no found major problems, some problems of minor registry, which I corrected.
  Windows Explorer problem occurred twice since the scan.

  Someone knows a problem associated to the last batch of updates?
  Thank you.
  Colin

  I just spent a few hours of operation, McAfee, Spybot, PCTools Spyware Doctor Lavasoft Ad-Aware, removal tool Microsoft malicious software, Microsoft defender, PC Tools Registry mechanic. All work in a deep analysis, if appropriate and all give zero infections/problems.

  You can run the scan utility from now until the cows is home and still not detect & remove all this hijackware, Colin. See...

  Now see step #3 ("now run a thorough check for hijackware, including display asked newspapers...) in my previous answer.

  TIP: Running Registry Mechanic may have made matters worse! If you ever think your registry database must be cleaned, repaired, amplified, to the point, or optimized (it isn't), read http://aumha.net/viewtopic.php?t=28099 and draw your own conclusions.

• Whenever I try to open a folder, windows Explorer stops and restarts. How can I open my files?

  When I double click on a folder to open it or try to open it in the start menu, an alert tells me that windows Explorer has to close, and then restart. I can't open the windows. I can open the fine when I'm in safe mode but not in normal startup. I tried to use a restore point, but my computer has not been implemented system restore points. Help!

  It could be Aproblematique with the codecs trying to preview the files. Go to the Control Panel, reports on problems and Solutions, click on "View problem history" on the left pane, scroll down to Windows Explorer, under click twice on the problem that correspond to the date and time that you have encountered the problem. Note the name of the file next to the heading ' fault module name: ', google for the file to see what program it is. Uninstall, update or reinstall the program.

• Guard Windows Explorer crashing and restarting

  Hi all

  I use Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on a Toshiba laptop. Yesterday afternoon, this "Explorer stopped responds" / "reboot...". "begun loop that I couldn't solve. I was not doing something special when he started to occur, no new installs, no new program, just browse the Internet with Chrome, Firefox and Internet Explorer Beta (all 3 for various reasons not related to the problem). Here are the things I've tried so far:

  1 system restore - unable to do because apparently, even if it was lit, "0" space has been assigned to the and there is no restore point
  2 safe Mode - does the same thing
  3. clean the Boot - did the same thing
  4 sfc/scannow - no integrity problem found
  5 chkdsk - no problems found
  6. Norton Internet Security 2011 Full System Scan - no problems found

  I spent over 6 hours trying to solve this problem, including 2 Norton analysts, trying to help through the support of the remote control. Only thing, they found a malware 'hack' through a combination of a-squared one of them installed, removal of which had absolutely no effect on the problem.

  I was able to disable (complete the process stops the loop but it means that I have no bar of tasks/desktop/folders)

  Any help would be greatly appreciated and thank you.

  (If possible, I prefer not to reinstall windows, format my hard drive or install a third-party program to "fix" for this problem)

  Just to make the clear solution for future reference:

  Go to Event Viewer (open Manager jobs by Ctrl + Alt + Delete, click on 'file'-> 'break-in' type "eventvwr.msc" for Event Viewer) to see what type of program is made a mistake in addition to Windows Explorer (2 errors showed on every restart Windows Explorer). Look at the path of the file for the second error. E.g.

  Activation context generation failed for "c:\program files\real\realplayer\plugins\rmxrend.dll." Load Assembly Microsoft.VC90.DebugCRT, processorArchitecture = "x 86" publicKeyToken = "1fc8b3b9a1e18e3b", type = "win32", version = "9.0.21022.8" was not found. Please use sxstrace.exe for detailed diagnosis.

  Note the main program (in this case realplayer). Then follow these steps, in order, until Windows stops crashing:

  1. ensure that the problems causing program is up-to-date, otherwise, update.

  2 Uninstall (go to the Manager of task-> type 'file'-> 'run' in "appwiz.cpl" for Add/Remove Programs)

  3. If #2 working, reinstall it and see if the problem is still present. If this is the case, uninstall and keep it uninstalled.

  My problem was caused by RealPlayer and went away once I uninstalled it. My realplayer has been updated and reinstall the back problem, so bye bye realplayer.

• Windows Explorer closes and restarts (?) when I right click on a file photo.

  One time, I installed a software to go with a slide scanner. The software changed to the default program for photo files and then proceeds to seize up after that about 12 slides have been scanned. I removed the software, but every time I do a right-click on a file photo, jpeg, gif, bitmap, etc., or try to open the file menu when one is highlighted, close all Windows Explorer Windows and icons in the taskbar and desktop disappear for a while. The last two return after a minute or two, but not all open windows. Other programs such as Internet Explorer or MS Word are not affected.

  I suspect that the defective scanner software installed an entry in the context menu. Search for it and delete it using the ShellExView free program:

• Creative Desktop Cloud crash Windows Explorer install and crashes

  This all started with my inability to activate Adobe Acrobat on my computer after wiping the hard drive and reinstall the operating system.

  I had no problem initially download or install anything Adobe Creative cloud. I ran several apps and they worked (although mode of trial for one or two days)

  And then the original problem: trying to activate Adobe Acrobat could not get to the login screen.

  It would hang for about 30 minutes, and then return to the error that the computer's clock must be incorrect or an error with the Internet connection. (It is a type error documented on the Adobe site that says you must make sure that your computer can really make each Adobe activation servers/websites/etc. I checked everything in the troubleshooting list to be sure, but found nothing wrong with the computer or the ability to access Adobe sites.

  Exasperated. I went online technical support. It was definitely level 1 support (checking me all the stuff that I had already spent a time check - and had already told him that I tested this).

  In any case, I spent an hour on chat with Adobe Tech Support through the usual stuff.

  He had me check the anti-virus programs, the computer clock, source of Adobe sites (such as license servers). But nothing ever helped or worked. Then he told me to try to go directly to the Adobe Creative Cloud site and try to download and install the desktop creative cloud Manager. I did but it blocks when he launched the Manager on the initial window with a Creative cloud black bar at the top (with the tool drop down menu on the right side) but never loads the rest of the window.

  After an hour of running around in circles, I decided it would be best to try again later with someone in the second level support.

  In the meantime, I uninstalled all Adobe applications. There is no Flash Player, not Acrobat Reader - nothing Adobe in my list of programs.

  I then tried to download and install Adobe Application Manager. It works until the moment where he launches the Creative Cloud Desktop tools and then crashes at the same place.

  There is a window of creative cloud with the normal black bar at the top - but the rest of the window (which would normally see and load apps from) remains empty.

  I rebooted the computer several times to be sure that it is a new start. That did not help at all. Something extra in these multiple attempts, I noticed, is that when the Creative Cloud Desktop Manager gets Installer about 95% of fact, it causes Windows Explorer (not Internet Explorer, but Windows Explorer) down. Once Windows Explorer resets, creative cloud continues the installation but then opens the window (above) has nothing other than the black header.

  I fight for what to do next. Any suggestion would be appreciated. Now I'm paying $50 a month for something, I can not install or use.

  For what it's worth, the system is a laptop HP running Windows 7 Ultimate x 64. 8 GB of RAM and a lot of HARD drive space. All the updates of security and Symantec Endpoint Protection 12.1. I doubt that this last line is relevant because I could run it without problem before wiping the hard drive AND it worked without problem - other than Acrobat activating at the beginning of this whole thing.

  I don't think Explorer is crashing, but just restart.  I think it's normal.

  disable the anti-virus

  2-scans for corrupted files (using cmd in start then sfc/scannow) but there is no apparent integrity
