Windows Explorer keeps having to restart.

4 years old system (bought new w/installed operating system). All the available upgrades installed (Vista64/Home Premium). Has run a full chkdsk on the HARD drive and it came back fine. HARD drive has 100 + GB free (320GB Seagate SATAII HDD). Same problem occurred before over the years - but not very often. Memory is reported as working properly (tested Sisandra and it passes several tests). Clean inside (no dust bunnies) case and side is turned off so not possible to heat build-up. I was wondering if the installation of the OS has a problem and how to reinstall 'over the top' and not lose the settings, etc.. Tried a repair some time ago - no problems found or fixed.

The problem is now resolved itself. No idea how or why. I deleted another file and folder - who went to the trash. Then I clicked on "empty trash" and it deleted everything - including the previously 'blocked' file

  • Gmail button (in internet explorer) keeps having moved to the right in my taskbar when I wasn't staying on the left (that's why I first open). How can I get the taskbar buttons to stop randomly to reorganize and stay in order?

    Gmail button (in internet explorer) keeps having moved to the right in my taskbar when I want to keep it on the left (that's why I first open).  How can I get the taskbar buttons to stop randomly to reorganize and stay in order?  I'm talking about the buttons on list of my open applications and documents in Windows Vista.  The bar tasks are "locked", but the button of the window open with gmail in internet explore reappears suddenly in the good moments apparently random.

    It is in the middle part of the taskbar (what I found online so far is on the start menu, the quick launch area or area/system tray of notification, the location of the taskbar in full, either about grouping taskbar - I disabled because I would like to separate).  Can anyone help?  I don't understand why this is happening (or why microsoft would never do).

    Lock the taskbar that it prevents to be moved elsewhere on the office and maintains the different sections where they are - it does not block the tabs showing what is open where they were when they were opened.  There is no control for this function.  Maybe if you uncheck similar taskbar buttons group it will help, but I honestly don't know (and fear he won't make any difference - it may even make things worse).  This also happens to me and I was unable to find an answer.  I think that there are more than just random, but I can't telll you why he moves the legs periodically (sometimes it works fine all day and other days it happens almost immediately).  But still, there is no control for this function, so there is no way to tell him to keep a specific order or to lock an established order, once it has been created.  I suspect that it happens because the notification area icons appear and hide and new programs open and close and which changes the amount of space available and so he rearranges things so that they match and apparently does not always consider the original sequence in which the elements have been added.  Maybe if you remove the Quick Launch toolbar and then add again, the order will reset (but that I know not - probably not in the original sequence, which I doubt is logged nowhere - it did not work when I tried it).

    Unfortunately, I don't have a solution to this problem (and I spend a little time looking for even before myselff posed the question) and do not believe that there is a.  It is also unfortunate that you can't move them so they can be put back in the right order if they change.  I don't think that there is nothing wrong with your system or that it is something that can be repaired or fixed - it's just the way it is and we just have to live with it.  I don't know any 3rd party software that controls the order of tabs open in the taskbar program (but you can check out Bing, Gooogle,www.tucows.comand www.download.com to see if I'm wrong on this - here n "t all when I looked trying to solve this problem for my own system).

    I'm sorry it wasn't what you wanted to hear, but it's like that.  I don't know if it's different in Windows 7.

  • 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.

    Hello

    Reinstall the printer driver and your audio/sound driver. Note update drivers was also
    one of the methods in the previous troubleshooting. Have you tried the clean boot method?
    Did you also run CheckDisk?

    If necessary AFTER those try a repair Installation / upgrade on the spot that allows you to keep
    programs and data backups however redundant are always a good idea.

    You can use another DVD that aren't copy protected but you you need to own
    Product key. It must be the same version 32 or 64 BIT Vista OEM. Also the system
    machine to usually sell the cheap disk since you already own Windows. Don't forget to make a

  • Windows Explorer keeps restarting.

    Dear geniuses,
    So, I found this egg Easter for Windows 7 that I thought would work for Vista too. It was an Easter egg "GodMode" that had me create a folder and rename it to something and after I made my computer made me reboot Windows Explorer and after I did it did not stop to do. I am not able to access anything (anything on my desk, my Start button, etc.), the only way I can access stuff is if I go into my task manager and that he tell it to create a new task. I can still go on the internet and I can't find any solution. Please help, thanks.

    Hello

    1 do you have. what application installed?

    2. have you already check if it's compatible with Windows 7?

    3. what happens when you open any application from the desktop?

    4. you have any application installed on the computer security?

    Method 1:

    I suggest you to uninstall the program and check if the problem persists.

    Uninstall or change a program

    Method 2:

    Step 1:

    I also suggest you to start the computer in safe mode and perform the clean boot in order to isolate the application that could be causing the problem.

    Start your computer in safe mode

    Step 2:

    This could happen if one of the substantive programmes is in conflict with the proper functioning of your computer. 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.

    Follow these steps to remove the folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Secure\icons:

    Open the task (Ctrl + Shift + Esc) Manager.

    Then click on 'Start' > type cmd.exe in the box "search programs and files" > right click on cmd.exe and select 'run as administrator '.

    Leaving open cmd.exe, in tasks, under process manager, find "explorer.exe" and click "explorer.exe" then click on "end process."

    Then in cmd.exe in the command prompt carefully and exactly type the following command and press "Enter":

    RD /S /Q C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Secure\icons

    Then in the Task Manager do the following:

    File > new task > then in the Run box type explorer.exe > OK

  • Windows Explorer keeps stopping, then turn.

    When I try to open some programs from my office, I get the message windows explore stopped & wait for it to restart.

    Please help me get rid of this. Thank you!
