From: Skybuck Flying on 12 Feb 2010 10:20 Hello, I just booted up my PC, explorer.exe didn't start, so I run it manually from Task Manager. Sometimes during the PC usage explorer.exe will consume 50% of cpu (one core), but this is the first time I have seen it not start on bootup. To me it seems like the updates that were installed 2 days ago might have something to do with it. I have also read that some pc's with xp couldn't boot at all after the updates (blue screens of death ?!?) I hope for me and my pc the situation doesn't get worse from here on... Bye, Skybuck.

What is explorer doing whacky? I have never experienced anything "whacky" about explorer. On 2010-02-12 20:10, Skybuck Flying wrote: > Windows XP x64 Pro. > > Question is for microsoft to be more carefull and pay attention to > explorer.exe it's been wacky forever ;) > > Bye, > Skybuck. > > |
