Reply with quote

Hi everybody...Here is my problem. Suddently, from one day to another (my daughters say than they didn't install nothing..mmm) I have problems with Explorer.exe since the beginning and It doesn't allow me to work. After login, it begins to load several programs and suddenly appears a message saying that Explorer.exe has find a problem and it is going to close itself. It ask me if I want to send the report to microsoft, I answer yes, no, whatever, it closes the desktop, recovers it and again, the same problem, the same message..If I restat in safe mode, I have the same problem. Any ide about how to repair it? I don't want to reformat and reinstall, because I have a lot to backup first, but if I should do, well...

Thanks

I already tried it before, but it doesn't work. As I told before, it allows me to do login and after that, it begans to give the explorer.exe problems.

Try to use system file checker:

If that fails, try a system restore.

It doesn't work, because windows doesn't allow me to run anything, because explorer.exe crash inmediately, when the system recovers, it crashes again, then I can not run or open anything, even the start menu. Well doesn't matter anymore, I already format and reinstall the system and I am reinstalling all my software and restoring my files now. Thanks for your help, we could close this issue.
