Pending: Explorer.exe crash

Vaz45 · 06-04-2008

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me with this problem

everytime I try to acess a file on my pc, such as my computer, control panel, my documents, or any files that use Explorer.exe, it crashes and it gives me the message to send error report,I looked into the details and it said something about this dll file

"Modname: shdocvw.dll"

Welcome to PCHF.

1. Is this the error message you get?
Explorer caused an invalid page fault in module Shdocvw.dll

If it is, reference: Error Message Typing Address in Address Box or in Open Box

To confirm that the AutoComplete feature is causing the problem, disable AutoComplete:
1.Click Start, point to Settings, click Control Panel, and then double-click Internet.
2.Click the Advanced tab.
3.Click to clear the Use inline AutoComplete for Web address check box and the Use inline AutoComplete in Windows Explorer check box.
4.Click OK.
