Re: Problem with Windows Explorer crashing repeatedly

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Thanks, all. So in your opinions, based on the messages, it is the Ipod
software that's acting up?

I did do an upgrade of the Itunes software yesterday, and also replaced
PortableDeviceTypes.dll from a backup, just in case it had become corrupted.
If it is indeed Itunes, and the problem returns, I will probably uninstall it
from this machine and put it on another I own that's not presently connected.

Me either. I would say the only chance is to go to the IPod people, hoping
to find updated software created due to pressure from multiple user
complaints about this problem.

Thank you, Gerry.

I had a trouble-free week, until this AM. I fixed the problem again by
rolling back the system, but clearly something is fundamentally
wrong. I have appended a cycle of event reports, per your suggestion.
I'm wondering if this is somehow related to the Ipod software on the
machine--not mine but my daughter's. Anyway, here goes.

Does the same thing happen if you boot to safe mode?

Please post one complete copy only of each of the Warning and Error
Reports from the System log of Event Viewer from the last boot
confirming which appear in previous boots. No Information Reports or
Duplicates please.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and
double click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which
appears is a button resembling two pages. Click the button and close
Event Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the
body of the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting
from Event Viewer.

Hope this helps.
