    Explorer Crashing


    Morning Everyone! Is there anyone out there that can decipher this problem. At least once a day my explorer crashes but I'm not really doing anything consistently to crash it. Usually "Alt+Tab" is when I notice it to switch apps. Here is the code that I got from Reliability History Faulting application name: Explorer.EXE, version: 10.0.19041.1081, time stamp: 0x4a52ebe1Faulting module name: unknown, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000Exception code: 0xc0000005Fault offset: 0x000000001fa50fd8Faulting process id: 0x31a8Faulting application start time: 0x01d767a6e321cbd4Faulting application path: C:\WINDOWS\Explorer.EXEFaulting module path: unknownReport Id: e731400f-1d4b-4b03-b5bf-784d21ad5049Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:

    Thanks Zat. I had never looked at event viewer and it had more info than I thought. Seems the problem was a second computer I was trying to network with. Unplugging the ethernet cable fixed the crashes. Explorer must have been looking in the wrong place I guess.

    Hey,

    I can understand how frustrating this would be.

    Please confirm what happened when you tried the above mentioned steps.

    If not then I would suggest you to try again.

    I would also suggest you to refer to the mentioned link:

    http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/internet-explorer/ie-crashes-stops-working#ie=ie-11

    Disclaimer: The Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature might reset security settings or privacy settings that you added to the list of
    Trusted Sites. The Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature might also reset parental control settings. We recommend that you note these sites before you use the Reset Internet Explorer Settings feature. Resetting Internet Explorer isn't reversible, and all
    previous settings are lost after reset.

    Hope this helps.
