From: Stefan Ulrich on 25 Mar 2005 09:25 Explorer Problem, very slow to launch applications if LAN connection is active Windows Explorer, on doubleclick on any file, takes about 7 seconds to launch the associated application, then another 2 seconds to open the file. I've checked in task manager, no apps are draining the CPU ressources when exlorer hangs on the launch. All apps are responding that way. Opening the context menue with a right-click on a file needs 7 seconds too. If I start let's say, Word or Excel, the apps load right away. Then I go in File/Open and open a file. The file opens immediately. The setup: P4 - 3GHz, 1 GB RAM WinXP Pro SP2 PCI Ethernet adapter linked to Internet / LAN by a Zyxel 650HW (ADSL-Router/Switch). There is a network activity in the app-launching time: LAN Connection status shows Activity. 12 packets sent. If the other network computer is running, time to launch an application is 75 seconds. It doesn't matter if the Internet Firewall / Symantec Personal Firewall are activated or not. However, deactivating the LAN connection results in an immediate launching the apps. SysInternals FileMonitor shows QUERY INFORMATION for every application installed on my system. Here a very small section as an example, during launching Winamp.exe by doubleclicking an *.ogg file: .... 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\Microsoft Office\Office10\POWERPNT.EXE SUCCESS Attributes: RA 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\PROGRA~1\POWERP~1\PPVIEW32.EXE SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\PROGRA~1\POWERP~1\PPVIEW32.EXE SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\PowerQuest\Drive Image 7.0\Browser\PQIBrowser.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\PowerQuest\Drive Image 7.0\Browser\PQIBrowser.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\PROGRA~1\QUICKT~1\QuickTimePlayer.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\PROGRA~1\QUICKT~1\QuickTimePlayer.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\Real\RealPlayer\realplay.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\Real\RealPlayer\realplay.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\Macromedia\Flash MX\Players\SAFlashPlayer.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A 13:31:27 explorer.exe:3348 QUERY INFORMATION C:\Programme\Macromedia\Flash MX\Players\SAFlashPlayer.exe SUCCESS Attributes: A ....

From: Stefan Ulrich on 26 Mar 2005 08:34 Hi Ramesh, Thanks for your answer. I run RegScanner, looking for "\\" in HKRC, but I found no entries pointing to a file/application in the other network computer. Besides, if the network computer is running, application launching time is even much longer. Only deactivating the LAN connection helps. Here a small section of a RegScanner result (scanning for "shell\open"). Entries for other apps are of the same pattern. ....

Hi Ramesh You solved my explorer problem! Applications are opened without delay on doubleclick, the context menus unfold immediately. I scanned HKCU for "\\" with RegScanner. I found some entries pointing to a network computer, one of them indicating an application KOOLMOVES. I deinstalled Koolmoves and erased remaining Koolmoves registry entries. Thank you so much!
