    I'm finding the unexpected errors very annoying and would like for them to go away once and for all. Is there a fix to this in order to make them go away forever? I hate this popup very much.

  2. File Explorer stopped working,

    Hi Anthony,

    Thank you for posting your query on Microsoft Community.

    I understand that the file explorer stops responding. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    This issue may arise when some of the Windows components or applications gets corrupted. We will assist you to resolve the issue.

    I suggest you to follow the steps provided below and check if it helps to resolve the explorer issue.

    • Press Alt+ctr+Del from Desktop.
    • Select Task Manager.
    • Under process tab, locate Windows Explorer.
    • Right Click Windows Explorer and select End Task.
    • Now select on File tab and click Run Task.
    • Type explorer.exe and press ok.
    • Check if the issue persists.
    If the issue persists, I suggest you to
    perform SFC scan and check if it helps to resolve the issue.



    System File Checker (SFC) is a utility in Microsoft Windows that allows users to scan for and restore corruptions in Windows system files. Perform System File Check (SFC), and then check if this fixes the issue.


    • Press the Windows button + X on your keyboard, a mini dialogue box will appear.

      2. Choose Command Prompt (Admin). You must run the command prompt in Administrator level.

      3. On the command prompt type sfc /scannow and hit enter.

      4. If everything went okay and no errors were found, restart your computer and see if the issue re-occurs.
    Hope the information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Unexpected Store Exception

    Hi Peter,

    The stop error "Unexpected Store Exception" that you encountered can be caused by a corrupted cache of the Windows Store, system files that got corrupted, a third-party anti-virus software causing a conflict or other system settings that may cause a conflict
    to name a few. For us to resolve your concern, kindly answer the questions below:

    • What troubleshooting steps have you attempted and what were the results?
    • What is the complete stop error that you saw when the blue screen error occurred? If possible, kindly post a screenshot.
    • Were there any specific activities that trigger the blue screen with a stop code to appear?
    • Have you already tried to temporarily disable the third party anti-virus software and check if that resolves the issue?
    • Which version and build of Windows 10 is installed on your device?

    As an initial recommendation, we suggest that you follow the steps on this
    link
    to complete the guided walk-through to correct issues that may lead to a blue screen error with a stop code.

    We look forward to your response to our queries.
