Explorer.exe random crashing: Exception Code 0xc0000005
Anyone here know why Explorer.exe or Windows Explorer would crash almost daily with an Exception Code 0xc0000005? It is usually when I am open/closing/editing/deleting/moving images files, usually when it is one at a time because I use a png of a character in a folder with many png files, edit it with a background, and save as jpg elsewhere. Then I delete the png used. and move the backgound (if I haven't used it before) to my backgrounds folder. doing this tedious one at a time movement will cause Explorer.exe to crash
