Windows 10: Windows explorer crash

Hello!
Two days ago, I have upgraded my windows 7 HP probook 470 Go to windows 10, using media creation tool (iso). After the complete installation and from the first boot to the new desktop, the windows explorer crashed. I have this problem since then. It is unable to restart explorer using task manager.
The only way to run an App is using task manager.
Please note that when restarting windows, explorer seems fine for about 3-4 min and then crashes.
I have downloaded all available drivers from HP and windows updates. The problem still exist.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Marios

Windows 10 File Explorer Crashing and Restarting On All 4 Of My Computers

I began using Explorer++ because File Explorer is near unusable. Unfortunately, it wasn't perfect either because it still caused explorer to crash when Explorer++ would use File Explorer or shell functions. When I did a re-install of Windows 10, I did not
install Explorer++ until File Explorer started failing. For test purposes, I've delete Explorer++ it and cleaned up the registry (there's no install/uninstall app).

When I open "Recent Items" in %userprofile%\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows, explorer crashes.

In Safe Mode, opening Recent Items does not cause explorer to crash however, it still crashes when creation a folder and still shows double libraries etc.

 

Win 10 - File Explorer Crashes

Hello MSFT Support,

Where have you gone?...this is a major issue for many loyal customers but as you can tell frustration is setting in with many in the lack of direction from Microsoft. I feel like we are trying various home remedies when the problem is with Microsoft File
Explorer which we rely on being stable and available.

Having us go to SafeMode is not a solution, also you could create more problems for customers in that BitLocker may come into play, which doesn't appear to be easy way to suspend this in non-Enterprise versions of Win10 before rebooting into SafeMode.

Please give us some direction or when the fix will be implemented?

It would be a real shame if you lose loyal customers to Apple or Google but lack of leadership here may steer many in that direction.

Best Regards!

 

Exact same problem, only that mine freezes for about 30 seconds after doing almost any action. And then goes back to normal

 

Hello,

I have found the problem. I have uninstalled IDT Audio driver (from the Program and Features). All back to normal now!

 

Cool. I have nothing like it though, still dunno what might be causing the issue.

 

You might have incompatible Shell Extensions which worked in previous version. Try #2 and #3 in this thread:

Awesome, thanks for your help, it seems like it was some of the stuff I had working with explorer, maybe some pdf creator (phantom foxit) or some nero plugin, but anyway it is fixed now *Biggrin
