Windows Explorer.exe Will Not Load Or Stay Loaded
Dec 22, 2005
It all started when none of my folders would open or "mycomputer" or any "explorer.exe" related things. So I restarted the computer, and after restart the logon screen come on. I tryed to log in but all I got was the "Loadding your personal settings".Then nothing. So Ctrl-Alt-Del the consol comes up. I tried to run explorer.exe manuly but it just blinks on the screen and then disappear.It is almost like something is killing or not letting explorer.exe stay loaded.

I have just partitioned my hard drive on my computer running Windows Vista, renamed the partition 'X' and I wish to install Windows XP Professional.I have loaded the disk, got the Welcome screen up, clicked the green Install Windows' button and I get This programme is blocked due to incompatibility problems'. It quotes the Windows version on the equipment is more recent than the CD version.It recommends finding a solution on line.Once I get to the Windows site, I don't know what to look for.Should I have done more in setting up the partition (which is already in NTFS format.)I have to do this myself as I am not in a locality with ready help on hand.I am running a Compaq with AMD Athlon 64 X2 D C Processor with 2.87GB of memory.

First my computer was cutting off in the middle of any program. I decided to delete everything on the drive and reformat it and reload windows xp. While trying to load windows xp it would load the set up but when going to load files it locked up everytime. I tried also loading windows 98, 95 and they too locked up. At one point it said I had a virus in my boot sector and at another time it said I had a virus in my RAM. I got a program called PC Beginner to help partition my drive and redo the MBR. I can partition the drive and format it but windows still doesn't load. Now I wonder if there is a problem with the mother board and I have a dual bios board, I was wonder if there is a program loaded in the dual bios that may somehow causing my problem. If so what can be done to clear the problem? How can I get windows reloaded?

I am running a dell 4600 computer. I have windows xp home addition. My problem is when i go into exp. it opens and goes to where i tell it to, then is stops, freezes and then an error box comes up saying they have encounter an error and must shut down. It also says that if i continue to have this problem, to restart my computer. Well i have restarted my computer 4 times and the same thing keeps happening. I have run the Adware program i have and have found some bugs there, but it doesn't seem like that is what the problem is.

If you turn off the system windows xp used with the GA-K8NSC-939 motherboard by using start and then shut down, does the mouse and keyboards stay on after the system is Off?
I had this problem happen with an Asus motherboard. Checked all of the setting in the bios.

Long story short, it's been a week since i've seen my desktop. No taskbar, no start menu, just my wallpaper. I have been able to use my computer through the Task Manager but that's about it. In searching for answers through the past week, it has been brought to my attention that the most likeliest of problems pertaining to this would be that my Explorer.exe is not active when I restart my computer. I have ran numerous Malware programs and have removed quite alot, but this problem still persists. I have searched through this forum and have seen one case to where this particular problem was solved but it needs special attention.

Hard drive crash, transplanted HD to new computer which now has 2 hard drives, C & D. Problem is I cannot open Windows Explorer from desktop or any other location, from either drive. I get a message that says it "generates errors." And that it is keeping a log, presumably for use on some Day of Judgment. (I get around it for now by right-clicking My Computer and picking Explore from the pop-up menu.)I have gone to the usual download sites in search of WE, no dice.

Ok, so, I wake up one day, turn my computer on, log on to my profile, takes a little longer than usual, but, nothing suss. Comes up with my wallpaper and then gives me an error. Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. If you were in the middle of something it might be lost. Tell MS about this problem. <Send error report> <don't send error report>
I've tried to run system restore, but it won't let me go back a month on the calendar or change system restore settings so I can't restore any point that isn't the restore point made today, after the errors started happening. Also, every time I run an app, it says "ctf loader can't run" and comes up with the error report screen, I click don't send, it goes away and the app works fine. So I ran adaware, deleted everything it found, ran HJT

I think these two are related, but I cant seem to find anything that would explain why either is occuring. When trying to load Photoshop, Dreamweaver MX, or any other heavy duty program (3D Studio Max etc), I get the error "Explorer has caused and error and needs to close". Also, when trying to run some problems I get an error stating that I am running a 16-bit MSDOS sub-system and references the files command.com and autoexec.nt. Last I checked the MSDOS subsystem quit with Win2K. I've run ad-aware, spybot, and AVG antivirus trying to find something that way that may have effected the system, but I didnt find anything.

I leave my computer on 24/7 but lately every morning when i wake up I'd come downstairs to error messages related to virtual ram running low (but a meter would read my actually ram used at 1-4%) Programs would crash due to not having enough memory and nothing would be running when i woke up. The weird thing was, there weren't any new programs that were running, it was all the same things that worked fine before. It started suddenly, and after updating a program called Azureus it seemed to worsen, but it was always the first to close. I noticed that Norton 2003 auto protect was disabled and it wouldn't enable so i upgraded to 2005 and updated it. It then found 30 some viruses, all being Trojan related. I think all of the files were related to TASKMNGU.exe and a file called something like MSMSGI.exe. Norton couldn't clean them so i rebooted in safe mode and scanned, when it found all of them it quarantined a few, deleted about 20 and 4 were left unable to do anything with. i then rebooted into normal windows, and was going to see what was left, and how to handle them, only when i clicked on my user, entered my password, and waited for my desktop to load, it never did. It froze with my background image there, all my processes seemed to start up except explorer (windows explorer, not IE, i use Firefox anyway). I tried rebooting in safe mode and had the same problem. I tried going to new, and running explorer.exe from task manager but it says i cannot find the file. I hit browse, found it and selected it but again it said it couldn't find it. I then tried repairing the version of XP with the install disk from Dell but it just takes me a command prompt, which im not sure what to do with. does anyone have any ideas how to get explorer to load?

I have a computer that is running windows xp home edition. I cannot create a
shortcut to the windows explorer application on my desktop, as the windows
explorer program does not appear in the programs window. I know that if I
click on the start menu and navagate to the programs icon, a second window
wil appear showing all of the programs that are installed on my computer.
However in the programs menu, I cannot see my explorer application anywhere.

I purchased a used HP 8575c, Pentium III. History: original OS Windows 98 SE, previous owner installed Windows XP Pro, then computer would not "see" CD-rom or DVD-rom. He admitted to using a "Windows XP activation crack" to bypass registration of XP. He sold me the computer, and I was able to activate the CD-rom & DVD-rom by eliminating the "upperlimit" and "lowerlimit" HKEY settings. I wanted to install Windows 98 SE (my favorite system). I was able to load Windows 98 SE, but lost the CD and DVD again. And this time, there was no "upperlimit" or "lowerlimit" keys available. I decided to load my own Windows XP Pro (legitimate CD with key), but couldn't load it because of no CD capabilities.
I was advised to use a Killdisk floppy to wipe the HD, download the 6 Windows XP boot disks, which would load the needed drivers for the CD and DVD, and I could then load XP normally from the CD. I wiped the hard drive, inserted the 1st XP boot disk, no problem, it then called for disk 2, then this message appeared: file tkrnlmp.exe could not be loaded, error code is 7, setup cannot continue. I can get into bios where I restored defaults, but no change. The windows help site suggested hitting the F7 key when it calls for F6 about installing RAID, etc, but it didn't work. I don't know where to go from here. At this point the computer is a big paperweight.
