• Windows Explorer crashes on Asus after uninstalling the game files.

  A couple of days, I uninstalled the games that came with my Asus U36S laptop and after that my Windows Explorer began to crash and restart - and recovery system does not work for some reason any.

  At first I thought it was a coincidence, so I tried to understand what could be the problem. I checked the third-party applications, virus, malware, tried clean restarts, restart in safe mode and so on and so forth. But the problem persists.

  After all the discussions Forum I could find on the situation through, I finally noticed that someone else had the same problem and solved it in re - install game files (OT here, final note: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-system/windows-7-home-premium-corrupted-file-pintlgbimd/f39e62df-aaf0-4bfd-adbd-cd8e874a5297?page=2).

  Now, I'd love to do that too - but I have no idea how to do to get your hands on these game files. I don't have an installation CD (my laptop did not come with a CD-rom) and I don't even remember the names of the games that I uninstalled.

  Can someone help me with this? I would be eternally grateful!

  PS: I tried to call Asus about this, but they were less than helpful...

  A couple of things by looking at the Event Viewer logs.

  The ASUSWSShellExt64.dll was originally explore crash like this recently connected recurrent error:

  The failing application name: explorer.exe, version: 6.1.7601.17567, time stamp: 0x4d672ee4
  The failed module name: ASUSWSShellExt64.dll, version: 1.1.0.27, time stamp: 0x4c7f631

  In addition, Chrome is crashing because of the iDeviceEx.dll like this recently connected recurrent error:

  Name of the failing application: chrome.exe, version: 32.0.1700.107, time stamp: 0x52ed6c62
  Name of the failed module: iDeviceEx.dll_unloaded, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x4cde567f

  The information that you have posted on the grip, the location of the iDeviceEx.dll is as follows:

  LoadedModule [148] =C:\Program Files (x 86) \iMacsoft\iPod to PC Transfer\iDeviceEx.dll

  Can you try to go to the \iMacsoft\iPod C:\Program Files (x 86) to PC file transfer and right-click the iDeviceEx.dll and the iDeviceEx.dll and rename it to iDeviceEx.old

  Log off and reconnect again, and then restart Chrome and see if the same problem of hanging occurs.

  When you open the video files that display thumbnails, the codec is used to create the thumbnail for the videos it decodes. A work around for this is to change the display of files of other tiles. You can try to reinstall your codecs or download other codecs, do a google search and download only from trusted sites. You might have added new video file formats, and you need the codec for this video format.

• Windows Explorer crashes when you open any folder with MPEG2 files.

  WinXP SP3 - When you open any folder with MPEG2 files, windows Explorer crashes. If the folder contains only the MPEG1 files, it opens without a problem. We first thought it was a problem of media player, but we can not even click on a file to open it in media player.

  Hi kathyd,.

  ·        You did changes to the computer before this problem started?

  Since we do not know what is causing this problem, I'd suggest unanimous the event viewer on your computer and check the details in the window logs messages/error codes important related to the question, during the time where this problem occurs and after return.

  Event logs can help you identify and diagnose the source of current system problems or help you predict potential system problems.

  Access the link below to learn how to view and manage the event logs in Event Viewer in Windows XP

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/308427

  http://www.Microsoft.com/resources/documentation/Windows/XP/all/proddocs/en-us/event_overview_01.mspx?mfr=true

  You can try to start both computers in safe mode and check if it can open the folder where the MPEG 2 files are stored and if windows Explorer crashes. To boot to the desktop in safe mode keep tapping key F8 during restart. Once you see the option to start in safe mode select and press to enter.

  I hope this helps. Post back with the required information.

  Thank you and best regards,

• Windows Mail crashed an email from opening, and whenever I restart it blocks trying to open the same mail

  A friend sent an email with a link to a newspaper article and a link to the newspaper article. Windows mail just froze (crash?) tries to open the one piece - so I had to stop with the Task Manager. Whenever I try to open Windows mail, because it sucks in all my messages from my email account, and he hangs up evry time I try to delete the one that causes the program to hang the hanging, so I'm not able to see any mail at all.

• Windows Explorer crashes when you open folders that contain pictures.

  From this point, I'm exasperated!  Whenever I try to open a folder containing images, windows Explorer crashes.

  I did a thorough check of the spyware.  I jumped through hoops attempting to clean the cache thumb and no joy.

  When it first started happening, I thought it was too many files in a folder.  That does not seem to resolve things for a while, but the problem is back.

  There may be too much data in the folder or the display on the screen.  You have pictures instead of icons in these records?  Go to start / Control Panel / folder Options / view and check the box for display icons instead of thumbnails.  See if that solves the problem.

  If this isn't the case, create a single image and save the file.  Create a folder in Windows Explorer and save the file to this folder.  Try to open this file.  You have the same problem or does it work?  If this works, there may be something true in what you said about the size of the files.  If she has the same problem, then you must do some serious troubleshooting to try to find the cause and fix.

  I hope this helps. Keep me informed.

  Good luck!

• Windows Explorer Crash when using the control panel

  This is the type of an interesting question that happens to me only sporadically and usually only to a cold start.

  When I shut down the computer completely for cleaning or install something, when restarting, open the Control Panel causes Windows Explorer to crash (note that this is not Internet Explorer).
  
  It restarts immediately, but I lost some of the icons in the taskbar - especially the icon Sound Max.

  If I do a reboot it comes back and I can use the Control Panel normally. Tried to remove items from the start menu, as obviously something is in conflict when it starts but it is like shooting in the dark to find the good start. I even reinstalled W7 with a lot of attention, but it happens once again from time to time. I ran sfc/scannow several times and all is well.

  As long as I don't do a cold reboot it will work very well for weeks without a hitch. (Please no comments about just don't).

  Someone else has a similar problem? My specs are lower and it has not changed when I updated to the latest version of the bios so I suspect something on W7, and I strongly suspect the driver SoundMax which is in fact very old for W7X64.

  All updates are underway, including the latest which was supposed to increase stability for W7 X 64. I had added this update 4/28. An accident 29/4 good. I uninstalled the update and re-installed directly from the microsoft link. Sometimes it works, but not in this case.

  I studied all the information mentioned in the error codes and most of the time, it led to speculation of different people to different causes. I've read that it could be a conflict with the driver Sound Max, this is why I suspect as well that it might involve the Nvidia GPU driver. Changed the GPU driver and no joy. Whenever I have ask W7 to check a solution that is not found. So, it happens once in a while, but there is nothing wrong? At least Microsoft knows something is happening--evidence of the update.

• Windows Explorer crashes when the click with the right button on folders

  My Windows Explorer crashes whenever I right click on a folder, any folder.  It is for me a "Windows Explorer has stopped working" then it gives me a warning 'Windows restarts.  Then he closes my Explorer window.  I tried many things to see if that would help and nothing has done so far.  Anyone has any suggestions on how to solve this problem or knows what could be the problem?

  Click right problems are very often caused by third-party programs adding entries in the context menu.  Here is a program that can help you manage these inscriptions: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html.  Here, another article written for XP, but it applies to Vista that may be useful: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/context_folders.htm.

• Windows Explorer crashes constantly on the new Asus

  I bought a new X53SV-SX288V Asus with windows 7 64 bit on it and after installing some programs Windows Explorer crashes constantly for some reason any...

  I have restored the pc to factory a couple of times now, hoping it might fix the problem, but it is persistent...

  Windows Explorer crashes often and sometimes it seems that the problem has disappeared, but then it happens randomly. When I restart the Explorer usually just, it freezes again and gives me the same error permanently after each restart of Explorer... it just crashes, restarts, block immediately, restart and so on...

  I don't know what to do. I'm not much of a geek...

  The thing is, the problem occurs only after you have installed programs. Not directly after the time I restore settings, is probably not a hardware problem (I think).

  Still, I installed an antivirus before anything else.
  First of all, I tried Comodo several times. Then Avira. And now I'm with AVG. Thus, all the programs I download should be good.

  Side note: programs Evernote who install are all widely used programs like CCleaner, Skype, iTunes, Chrome,... All of their own websites, so I do not understand how they are the problem.

  Is it possible that this is a problem material, even when the problem occurs only after you have installed (well known) programs?

  How to fix this problem?

• Windows Explorer crashes when you open Control Panel

  After starting my PC of operation Win 7 Pro (64 bit) every time I try to open the control panel for the first time, Windows Explorer stops responding forcing me to restart Windows Explorer. Once Windows Explorer restarts then Control Panel opens normally after that no matter how many times I open the Panel. Any ideas how to fix?

  Often, a certain instability in Windows Explorer is due to the defective shell extensions and addons.
  Consider using Sysinternals Autoruns or ShellExView. Disable Add-ons and non Microsoft shell extensions and verify the behavior.  If he went, reactivate the disabled extensions/add-ons, one at a time and see if you can identify who may be liable.

  Try a clean boot, or boot into safe mode.  The behavior persists?
