    File Explorer quits working


    Hi,

    I have 2 laptops that have recently been restored to factory settings, one was to Windows 8.1 Pro, the other to 7.1. I then upgraded them to Windows 10 via Microsoft.

    They both seem to work except, once in awhile (at least daily) File Explorer refuses to start and I have to restart in order to work.

    Any suggestions or solutions will be greatly appreciated.

    Regards,

    Jim

    :)

    Internet Explorer quits working

    Hi Dianne,

    An outdated browser is one of the possible causes why Internet Explorer crashes when you play a game. To isolate your concern, kindly answer the following:

    • How are you connected to the internet? Is it via Wi-Fi or Ethernet?
    • Have you tried play the game in a different web browser to see if the issue persists?
    Meanwhile, kindly follow these steps to help you resolve your concern:

    Method 1: Clear your browsing history. You may refer to this
    link    .

    Method 2: Reset the web browser. Open Internet Explorer> Settings> Internet Options> Advanced> Reset...> Apply> OK.

    Note: Please save your important credentials and web pages to a cloud storage or external drive to avoid data loss.

    After doing these steps, please restart the computer.
