Windows 10: Endless Explorer.exe crash loop

Hi,


While retweaking the system tray icons using DLL files from Windows 8.1, CustomizerGod explaining to why their site says "not fully compatible with 1903", decided to endlessly beg and force me to use an old explorer.exe and kernelbase.dll file. I accepted two days ago in order to remember the file names on what to replace, resulting on an infinite crash loop with the following details:


Faulting application name: explorer.exe, version: 10.0.19041.488, time stamp: 0xb1a44bf9

Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 10.0.19041.488, time stamp: 0x5b4a3325

Exception code: 0x00000505


What should I do? Version is 2004, installed a couple days ago to fix a similar issue.

Windows 10 update problem - endless loop

No this solution did not solve the problem. I inserted the installation media but it did not work, I was just thrown into the endless loop again. Any more suggestions?

Thank you

 

Stuck in explorer crash loop

Hello!

Today, out of nowhere, I started having problems with explorer. When right-clicking on the desktop (or icons on it) explorer would crash and restart itself a few seconds later (icons disappear, taskbar disappears, etc...).

I looked for a solution online and many people suggested installing ShellExView and disabling everything non-Microsoft and then re-enabling them one by one to find the culprit. Actually, disabling every non-Microsoft entry made things much worse for me, as explorer would go into a crash loop (crash, restart, crash, and so on...). For some reason I though updating Windows would help me fix everything, but after applying updates and restarting I noticed nothing had changed and now I'm stuck in the loop right after login (I basically cannot do anything except launch stuff through the task manager).

I'm currently in safe mode, and everything works fine here, but I have no idea how to fix the problem. I tried reverting to the previous build, it failed (generic error, don't really remember it). I tried restoring to a previous restore point, it failed. Even resetting failed. I just guess I'll have to reinstall w10 from scratch, I just wanted to know if there was something else to try out before doing that.

Sorry for the long post! (or maybe it looks long in safe mode because of the low resolution *Biggrin )
