I am unable to delete anything off of my computer. Whenever I try,

explorer.exe-application error

The instructions at "0x7c919925" referenced memory at "0x05168bfd"
The memory could not be "read"

Then whatever is up on the screen gets shut down. If on my desktop,
it just clears everything off the screen and refreshes it all. If
anyone can help me, so I clean up my desktop and my computer I
would greatly appreciate it. Thanks
