Restore Point: Windows Explorer Hang/Not Responding
Aug 30, 2009
when I right Clicked a short cut, file or folder within Windows Explorer. It caused Windows Explorer to Hang/Not responding. Then Idecided to do an update to the Vista, so I ran the Upda5te option. My problem of right clicking appeared again? I went back into Safe Mode to find and re-do the System Restor from Sept 24th and it no longer exist? the select older than 5 days was grayed out.
I did not delete or do anything (that I'm aware of) to remove it. It was the last one on the list. Was it deleted automatically due to storage size allowed? In any case, is there a way to get it back? I need to fix this problem - of right clicking something and having Windows Explorer hang/not repond. Do I have to do a Vista Repair from my DVDs to get rid of the problem?

I have a recent problem installing Windows updates on Vista Ultimate as the update process stays on 'creating restore point' forever. I've let it run as long as 7 hours in this state, with no change. It looks like the system is unable to make a restore point sucessfully. I know it has worked in the past, as I'm fairly up-to-date on Windows updates. Reading some other threads, I've tried using Disk Clean-up to remove all by the most recent restore points, and then try to disable/re-enable system restore - this part without success. When I check the system properties for System Restore, the System Restore button is greyed out. I've attached a screenshot of the screen for reference. I've checked the group policies to verify the System Restore is not disabled there.

First of all, I will make sure to clarify that this is indeed a WINDOWS Explorer problem, and not an Windows INTERNET Explorer problem. I am able to use IE without problem, and connectivity is not affected. Whenever I try to open a location on my computer (Computer, "My Documents"

I am using Vista X64 with service pack 1. I bought my pc Acer Aspire M5800 third quarter of 2009 and has been using my pc without any problem. I am using Trend Micro Internet Security Pro Anti-virus on my PC. Since 2 days ago all my X64 compliant softwares which I had to buy new since migrating to Vista began to stop responding. Today my windows explorer.exe has stopped responding and I am unable to open my files.

Windows Internet Explorer (Not Responding). I get this message fifty times a day, everytime I try to switch programs or follow a link (or at least 20% of the time). Eventually all I can do is click the red X then it will offer to restart the program, which is really my only option, and what I have to do. Is there anything I can do? Should I switch to FireFox?

Having a massive problem here with vista! Windows explorer decided not to respond and then said that it required restart, while in the process of restart explorer the laptop crashed with blue stop error screen. Afterwards, new startup screen came on saying the vista is unable to load and to chose either Startup repair or Resume Windows normally
now when I tried to use startup repair it was unable to fix problem and then tried to resume normally but this showed only a blank black screen. What is happening and how can I fix this?! Im trying to do this without formatting if possible since there are still important documents and programs that I need to backup!

Details are included in the CBS.Log windirLogsCBSCBS.log.
For example C:WindowsLogsCBSCBS.log,C:Windowssystem32>windirlogscbscbs.log The system cannot find the path specified. i dont want to do a full restart of my pc,

When ever i try to delete a program or some file types off my computer, a popup comes on saying Windows explorer has stopped responding, and it closes all my windows and freezes my computer for a couple minutes. This has become very annoying as i am trying to clean up old files on my computer.

I hope this is the correct group. I've been running XP Pro for quie some time and recently installed Vista using Partition Magic and have also installed Vista BootPro. I planned a full migration of all of my data from XP today but cannot boot into XP for some reason. I was going to export or save vital data from XP, so this is quite a bummer. I cannot enter Safe Mode nor use Last Known Good Config options for XP. My box makes it up to the "Starting Windows" screen and hangs there. After exporting the data I require from XP and saving to disk I was going to manually install all of my progs into Vista (Quite a plan for the 4th, huh?)Is there a method to utilize an XP Restore Point from Vista to enable me to boot into XP?

I'm still a bit of a n00b here... but, I've found resolution to an age-old problem! In Internet Explorer, sometimes Vista (and Vista x64, of course) users experience downloads hanging at 99%, or, the green progress bar in the dialogue box freezes at 99%. It can take 2 hours to an entire day for it to finish, or maybe not at all! I've experienced this several times through several reformats. in my case, it was because of installing Layered Service Provider (LSP)-related sofware which corrupted my browser for some reason. I only know that as soon as that went active on my PC, that's when the browser failed. Either way, here's how to solve it! It's "Temporary Internet Files"-related!
1.) Even-if you have hidden folders & files-view set to YES, you still can't access the right folder.
2.) From Control Panel --- Internet Options, do the following:
3.) On Browser History, you'll see a DELETE & SETTINGS tab. Click SETTINGS.
4.) You'll now see "MOVE FOLDER," "VIEW OBJECTS," and "VIEW FILES." Click "View Files."
5.) Typically, in Vista (also x64, it doesn't matter,) you'll see a PREVIEW PANE on the left-hand side of Windows Explorer! That should show the tree of folders leading to "Temporary Internet Files." ......

In the Triggers tab for Task Scheduler for System Restore it shows a trigger at system startup but there is no system restore point that was created this morning when I started my system. I fact I so none after 1/31 except for an uninstall I did. I have plenty of free disk space (100 gb free of 149 gb). How can I set this so that every day when I start my system System Restore creates a restore point?

Vista 64bit has been running really well on my desktop after a clean install in March. Suddenly, Windows update is failing to install, because it can't create a systen restore point. When I try to create one in System Restore, manually, it fails also, citing the shadow file timeout, or some such.....I am worried, because I can't use backup, either! Anyone know what's going on?

I have task scheduler set up to create a restore point once a day. The history panel shows that the restore point is created on schedule, yet it does not show up in the system restore panel under system properties/system protection. Nor does the free space on the hard drive shrink by a gig or so, as I'd expect. All the settings in task scheduler seem to be correct, and I can create restore points manually. It's just that the automatic feature does not work. Has anyone experienced a problem like this? I'm using Vista Home Premium. Oodles of space allocated for restore points.

In the "task scheduler" the default setting is for "12:00am each day" and the second "trigger" is "upon comuter startup".These are in place and marked as "enabled" yet a "system restore point"is not automatically being created.The event log reads as follows:
Log Name: Microsoft-Windows-TaskScheduler/Operational

I am running Vista Home Premium x64. Everytime I bootup, the Language Pack removal service runs (as it is supposed to, apparently).
However, Vista seems to treat this as a significant system event, which triggers a restore point to be created. The restore point creation is slowing down access to my hard disk everytime I reboot.
When I look at the list of restore points that Vista has created, a restore point is created at every bootup due to the event “Uninstall: Language Pack Removal”. I can see the list by running “System Restore”, then selecting “choose another restore point” and clicking Next.
Any idea how to stop the restore point being created at every bootup? I assume there’s a good reason Vista runs the Language Pack removal service at every bootup, so I’d rather keep that running.
I also want a restore point created when there is a software install/uninstall, so want to keep the system restore service running, too.

Getting the time out error 0X81000101 when I try to set a restore point on Vista X64 Home Premium. This happened right after trying to install a Creative external 24bit Live sound blaster driver updates. I have read many threads and have done the following to no avail:
Turned off AVG free 8.5 Resident Shield. Ran disk clean up and rebooted. Turned off System Restore as Administrator, rebooted, turned on System Restore for C: drive only. Made sure that the Volume Shadow Copy Service is Running and set on Automatic and Started. I have read a few regedit posts but am reluctant to try that yet since I can't make a copy of my registry right now with the failed System Restore. When I do try to create a System Restore point, it hangs forever. Task manager says it is not responding.

Does any one know how to restore the restore point from dos in Vista Ultimate 64 bit. I need to know the steps and directories in how to restore any one of them listed. For some reason the restore points are not listing. When I use Vista restore program I think it's a big bug that Windows need to fix in vista.

Is there any way to restore the XP appearance for windows explorer? I prefer the old tree appearance, icons and indentation. The vista version is too hard to see -- there is not enough indentation, I can't tell where I am. I also miss the "up" button.

In Windows Vista the window title and icon has been removed in all instances of Windows Explorer. The result is a blank space in the window that just does not look good where the window title normally is placed.
Using a cool free utility called AeroBar you can restore the window titlebar title and icon. To use the utility visit Outils (http://www.psscript.net/utils.htm) and download AeroBar.exe (http://www.psscript.net/AeroBar.exe).
Install is a snap. Just copy the utility to the Start Up folder of your start menu. If you want to also show the folder icons, just rename AeroBar.exe to AeroBarIco.exe ...
