Very recently, whenever I click on doubleclick or right click mpeg files in Explorer, or attempt to open mpeg files through WMPlayer, the application in question crashes and shuts down.
No error messages are given. Type File Explorer Options in the search bar 4. Select File Explorer Options 5. This will open the Folder Options 6. In the toolbar, right click the File Explorer icon and select Unpin from toolbar.
Press and Hold Windows key and press R 3. Type control panel and press Enter or click Ok 4. Type File Explorer Options in the search bar 5. Select File Explorer Options 6. This will open the Folder Options 7. In the General tab, click the Clear button in the Privacy section. Now, close the Windows Explorer by clicking the X at the top right corner of the window Right click on the Desktop at any empty space.
Click New and then click Shortcut. Rename this file to File Explorer and click Finish. I hope it works. Best Regards, Diego R. How satisfied are you with this reply? Thanks for your feedback, it helps us improve the site. Wednesday, December 23, AM. Hey Prep Uh, Zach. I'm having the same problem. Win7 RC. Mpgs crash explorer if selected or displayed basically if read at all. WMP crashes when trying to open them too. Friday, December 25, AM. Still no update? Saturday, January 2, PM. I was off doing other things.
Happy New Year, btw. Is that on your system? Is there an update to it available? It'd be easy to hit known and subsequently fixed issues in the RC build. Greetings, I recently started having issues with explorer hanging in Vista64 any time I tried to access my second internal HD which is my media storage drive, almost exclusively video files. Initially I thought I had screwed something up in Vista and since I had planned on getting Windows 7 assumed that would fix the issue.
After doing a clean install to Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit a couple of days ago I encountered the same problem. When trying to access my second hard drive, it will work momentarily but eventually hangs.
This is a clean drive, no extraneous software, no downloads Any help would be greatly appreciated as this is really taking the fun out of having a shiny new OS. EXE Application Version: 6. Monday, January 4, PM. Hey Zach, Yeah this overlaps with the initial inquiry, it hangs when trying to get into folders with video files some of which are MPEG-2's, but granted the folders run the full gambit of video file extensions.
There were no "solutions" found by the automated search related to those crashes which is what has brought me to this thread. I fully updated the OS after I installed it, so it should be completely up to date. The problem being that my second hard drive is nothing but video files I am starting to think that windows is trying to recreate the thumbs each time the volume is opened and the MPEG thumbs are what's stalling the drive out.
I am trying to recreate a crash and post the log specific to the current thread. A trip to Task Manager shows it as Not Responding. If I need to create a new thread, that is fine but I feel this quite possibly related to the issue at hand. Thanks in advance. Tuesday, January 5, AM.

Deleting stuff from the registry usually makes things worse instead of making things better.
However, in this situation, it actually helped without trashing my stuff. Please be careful!!!! Wednesday, January 20, PM. This isn't just mpeg-2 files. There are a lot of extensions that causes the crash. I am looking into it right now. All I can say is this has nothing to do with Pinnacle. Tuesday, February 2, PM. This worked for me, first go. Friday, May 21, AM.
I just tried this out and it worked perfectly. What a great forum. Saturday, May 29, PM. I tried what Chuxterofdoom suggested and it seemed to help a little bit with my Windows 7 64 configuration as I have a little more time with the windows open before it crashes but it will still crash.
I really hope Microsoft gets this fixed. Its quite aggravating! Tuesday, June 22, AM. Wednesday, June 23, PM. Ziegler 0. I know its a old post But good luck if anyone else has this problem. Proposed as answer by danacon Thursday, July 8, PM.
Thursday, July 8, PM. I have Windows 7 32 bit and fixed the "explorer crashing whle viewing video folders". Monday, July 12, AM. In that case, posting up the Problem Report data might be interesting and help track down the actual source of the crash. Monday, July 12, PM. Friday, July 16, AM. Thats what I think it was also a bogus codec in the package or the software added.
But I always do a custom install and root out any extra software that is being installed and if it still makes you install that software I will get a different package or if I know what it is install it and once main program is installed go in and uninstall the program they installed with it, there "Money making extra software" lol Have a great day Zachd Thanks again Danacon.
My situation is a little different. Monday, August 23, PM. Your issue sounds totally unrelated and sounds like it belongs in a different thread. You can get to "Run" from Task Manager as well. Wednesday, August 25, AM.
