Win 7 error "Windows Explorer has stopped working"

Using Win 7 Home Premium, I get a pretty consistent message "Windows Explorer has stopped working" and the auto check routine does not come to the top with a solution.  I know for sure I can do it almost everytime with a right click on the Recycle Bin (I'm trying to empty).  My security program is Microsoft Security Essentials.

None of the positions worked for me. However, I could use the logger and hunt down later.

Here's how: go to the beginning
where it says, "computer", right click and select 'manage '.
under System Tools, select "Observer of events," look under "type of event" and find errors.
Scan down the list - make sure that the window is quite large, so you can see the errors in the last day (or maybe it's time).
When I did, I found many errors about "windows Explorer." When you click on one, it opens a box with details. All the ones I checked had the same details, more or less.
Most of the details seemed incomprehensible, but, in my case, a particular .dll kept being mentioned, file called AFLDLL. DLL.
what he said was: the name of the failing module: AFLDLL. Unloaded DLL or something to that effect
So, I went to start, search and put in AFLDLL. DLL and I was able to determine it related to a program for iomega dvd writer cd burning.
When I uninstalled this program from the Control Panel, add remove programs, the problem stopped.
Maybe the causes are different for different people. but at least it will give you an idea.
Maybe you can find some information on what is involved in your mistakes of "windows explorer".

    Thanks a lot guys.

    Hi PaulMazor,

    Well first of all, btwapi.dll is a process no system developed by Bluetooth. If you go on your computer, try to disable Bluetooth by going to network and Internet or however your wireless interface is configured on your computer. If you don't have Bluetooth on your computer, try to uninstall it. go to start > Control Panel > programs > uninstall programs > scroll down and uninstall. My last suggesting opens upward, the Windows Task Manager (press ctrl + alt + delete and release). Go to processes and disable the application there. Other that that, I can't help you any further.
    Good luck

  • Error "Windows explore has stopped working" when you open the file in my documents

    Original title: opening a file in the folder my documents

    Whenever I try to open a file in my documents folder, specifically a CV that I downloaded on a construction site. I get a message that windows Explorer has stopped working?

    Hi dalintn,

    1. What is the file format of the document?

    2. are you able to open documents from other locations?

    3. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    Check if the similar problem persists when you access the document from any other location on the computer.

    Method 1

    This error message can occur if there is some system files corrupted on your computer. I suggest that you run a SFC scan, which would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

    For more information please visit the link below.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails then I would suggest that you do clean boot and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

    Original title: Windows Explorer crash in Win7 and must restart

    If you disable the faulty module, then you may lose some click functionality of the graphics driver from AMD.

    But this should not affect the graphics driver himself.

    Reinstall the driver has the potential to solve the problem.

    As a matter of choice, you should be able to install the graphics driver AMD without the Catalyst Control Center, which can prevent the installation of the atiacm64.dll:
