  1. Explorer.exe fails to start when computer starts


    On Windows 10 2004, Explorer.exe fails to start when I log in to my computer. It takes about 12 seconds to get past the log in screen when I successfully input my password. After that, I see nothing. In order to start Explorer.exe, I must CTRL + ALT + DEL and start it via task manager.

    This doesn't happen every time I start my computer. I checked event viewer and found error logs claiming "Faulting application name: Explorer.EXE". I tried using the regedit shell solution and negative effect. There were some instances where I got an error in event viewer and this didn't happen. I do not know if this is relevant, but it usually happens when I start my computer before 2:40 P.M. EST.

  2. Internet Explorer won't start

    Since it's not allowing you to open the settings of the Internet Explorer itself, we suggest that you type inetcpl.cpl on
    the search box to open the Internet Properties and follow the steps provided on the link that we have on our previous post.

    Note: In doing this you can now skip step 1 under Reset Internet Explorer settings.

    If the issue persists, we recommend that you uninstall and reinstall the Internet Explorer.
    To do this, follow the steps below:

    To uninstall the Internet Explorer, follow the steps below:


    • Click the Start button, type
      Programs and Features in the search box, and then select
      View installed updates.

    • Under Uninstall an update, scroll down to the
      Microsoft Windows section.

    • Right-click Internet Explorer 11, click Uninstall and then click
      Yes.

    • Click one of the following:
    • Restart now (to finish the process of uninstalling Internet Explorer 11 and restore the previous version of Internet Explorer)

    • Restart later

    To download and reinstall Internet Explorer, follow the steps below:


    • Check the System Type that you need to install by pressing
      Windows key + Pause key.
    • Check the System type under System (Ex: 64-bit Operating system, x64-based processor).

    • Download Internet Explorer 11 (Offline Installer) on this
      link.

    • Choose your preferred language and Service Pack (Ex: Windows 7 SP1 64-bit).

    • Follow the on-screen prompt.

    • Once done, check if the issues persists.

    Note: The installer that you can download on this link also applies in Windows 10.

    We'll wait for your update with the result.

  3. Internet Explorer won't start

    Hi,

    It’s possible that missing or corrupted components are causing your Windows Features to automatically turn off. To provide the appropriate troubleshooting steps, we’d like to ask a few questions:

    • Which version of Windows and Internet Explorer is on your computer?
    • What troubleshooting steps have you done so far to resolve your concern?
    • Did you make any recent changes to your computer before the issue started?
    • Have you tried installing the latest Windows Update? After installing the latest Windows Update, restart the computer and check is the issue still persists.

    Additionally, we suggest that you perform a complete reset for your Internet Explorer. To do this, follow the instructions provided on this

    article
    .

    Disclaimer: The reset Internet Explorer settings feature might reset security settings or privacy settings that you added to the list of Trusted Sites. It may 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.

    We’ll keep an eye open for your response.
