windows explorer crash

[skinny killer]

any of you guys ever had your windows explorer crash every time you search something?

I'll open a folder, click search, click "All files and folders" and a box comes up wanting me to send an error report to Microsoft. then all folder windows close, the desktop and the start menu disappears. about 3 seconds later the desktop and the start menu come back.

it does this every time I search.


here's the error report........

AppName: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.5512 ModName: kernel32.dll
ModVer: 5.1.2600.5512 Offset: 00012aeb

nope. But i'm running IE 7.

Only problem I have is once in a while when trying to load a page I'll get a message saying it couldn't be loaded. Reloading the page fixes it though

If you put the entire error report into Google you get a list of links. The sponsored ones all offer free trial of kernel.dll repair.
I would go for one of them personally.

you updated windows? through their update site?

you could check for any minning cookies, adware, spyware in your system

some times they leech on to explorer and make it crash

try to scan using these items below google for them:
*Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware
*Spybot - Search & Destroy

yeah I ran onecare yesterday and it cleaned out 10 infected files. but it still didn't fix my problem.

Just to make things a bit clearer:

Is your problem with WINDOWS EXPLORER or INTERNET EXPLORER?

[skinny killer]

Windows explorer m8.

not internet explorer.

[.Simon.]

thought so, it seems others thought you meant internet explorer ;P

do you still have your XP (or vista) install disk? boot up with that and pick repair windows, or repair anything or something along those lines.

[skinny killer]

Yeah I still have my XP. I'll never turn VISTA never!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll try that and see what happens.. Thanks

[skinny killer]

ok well I didn't see a option to repear on the OS disk.

[Mstenger404]

eh, oh well.

Vista had that and a bunch of other options, oh well.

[skinny killer]

what would happen if I had someone send me their kernel32.DLL?

[Mstenger404]

hell idk, but what you should do is back up all your fav downloads, your screenshots, your chat logs, your porn, and your music onto a big flash drive.

then take that XP disk and reformat your hard drive completely.
