Windows Explorer Keeps Crashing!! - Please Help
I've usually been able to handle most computer problems that have come my way but this one has stumped me and I need some assistance.
My computer has been acting fine and I haven't had any troubles with it lately. But today when I downloaded a file (a word document that I had typed early on another computer and sent to myself via email), I got an error that Windows Explorer has stopped working. I clicked "Restart the Program" but it immediately crashed again.
Here's the problem details:
Event Name: BEX64
Application Name: Explorer.exe
Fault Module Name: MSVCR90.dll
There's a lot more details that I could write if needed, but I'm not sure if they're needed so I'll leave them out unless they could be of help.
Anyways, I restarted my computer and as soon as I login, the same error pops up again. And I can't even access my start menu because the Explorer has crashed.
So I booted into Safe Mode. It works for about 20 seconds and then crashes. After clicking "Restart the Program" I get about another 20 seconds before it crashes again. I quickly do a system restore to 3 hours earlier...it restores successfully but the error still persists.
I'm out of ideas... any help would be much appreciated.
Thank You
