    Windows Explorer Error
    « on: September 06, 2007, 04:42:20 PM »
    I'm on a Windows XP Home Toshiba Laptop, SP2 and when I open a certain file folder on my desktop I keep getting a windows exporer error, as seen in the pic I included.....
    I have run the usual spyware/trojan programs and find nothing, and there really isnt anything unusual in the folder, I have also scanned the folder itself and it finds nothing, anybody have any ideas what may be causing this?

      This is indicating that windows has had an error. It usually comes up when a program that is not responding is forcefully closed, but not usually when you are in windows explorer

      There appears to be something about that file that is not functioning properly. Could you give some particulars about the file? What program should it open with?
      Windows 8 and Windows 10 dual boot with two SSD's

        Unfortunately with .rar's you get what you pay for...scan the entire directory with all your protection apps.
