1273953	2012-05-06 22:46:00	When I right-click on a folder (not a file) the usual menu does not come up. Instead a message "Explorer has stopped working correctly, and will be shut down" My Win 7 disk does not give the option to repair, only install or custom install. I am logged in as administrator, but cannot find anything in account control or explorer settings that relate. Any suggestions?	DaveMac (2886)

1273956	2012-05-07 01:00:00	Yup computer is win explorer in Win7. Thats what I mean not the whole computer (when it crashes). So, what folder makes it stop? Whats it called?	Speedy Gonzales (78)
1273957	2012-05-07 01:07:00	Any Folder that I right click on. I've also tried restoring to an earlier time, but this no effect on the problem.	DaveMac (2886)
1273958	2012-05-07 01:13:00	I would try some of the options here (www.sevenforums.com)	Speedy Gonzales (78)
1273959	2012-05-07 01:44:00	Used ShellExView as suggested by your re-direction, disabled a shell extension put in by NVidia, and now the world has started turning again !! Thanks Speedy	DaveMac (2886)
