    I noticed it just after the most recent windows update. Restored to before that and no change.

  3. Explorer crashes with right click->New context menu

    Hey Caleb, sorry I got that wrong. It's just shellnew without the : in it. There's

    Presumably you've tried the obvious- reinstalling vlc player.

    Set VLC as default and you'll get the context menu entry.
