I have a really annoying problem: explorer.exe crashes whenever I simply select (i.e. click on) *.mpg or *.mp3 files. This means I cannot start them by double-clicking, or simply move them around.

I start by opening "My Computer" then browsing to a directory with either a mp3 file or a mpg file. I then click on it once only. I get the following error: "explorer.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows. You will need to restart the program", and then the window in which my directory was open dies. I do not need to restart explorer, as I can go back to "My Computer" and restart the process all over again.

I have run Ad-Aware, Spybot, and RegCleaner. I'm running the latest of Symantec Antivirus, and the BlackIce firewall. I've checked the file association, and *.mpg files play with Windows Media Player. Interestingly I can start Windows Media Player manually, and open the *.mpg files directly from there, and they play fine.

Can someone please help me ? I would greatly appreciate !
I am copying the content of the relevant DrWatson log below.
Thank you !!

First, I've figured out more file extensions for which Windows Explorer crashes on my computer: mp3, mpg, mpe, mpeg, asf, mov, wav. The problem could happen on more files, but that's all I have on my computer. Many of them look like they're related to Windows Media Player, but I don't see anything wrong with the file type association.

Second, I've looked into the context menu with a free download of ShellExView to disable application related extensions, but this didn't affect the problem.

Third, by playing with the folder options, I finally found a WORKAROUND !! Simply by disabling the WebView (Folder Options -> Use Windows Classic Folders), the problem disappears. So it probably has something to do with the preview icon that usually appears in the bottom left of Explorer in the WebView setting.

Now, this doesn't actually fix the problem, because there's still a conflict between some application and Windows Explorer when WebView is enabled. So if someone has an idea as to what I can do to actually fix the issue, I'd love to hear it !

Thanks,

J.B.

Hi

Did you ever find a fix for this? Thanks
