Open Windows Powershell in Administrator mode (or Command Prompt) and
run the following commands to repair it....
...and then use this to find the fragmented files....
...and defragment them, so that everything's connected again to its own files...
I sure wish that would fix my problem. When I depress the right mouse button on a file, while in Windows Explorer it crashes and restarts. Windows Explorer does this, not Windows itself.
ReplyDeleteI've done some research, but so far can't find the solution.
:-(
I sent you an email that won't help.
ReplyDeleteI found something about removing a key in the Registry, and something else about a Registry key with a typo in it, but I can't find those in Windows 8.1.
If you are running Windows 8.1,
have you installed update KB3000850 which is almost like a service pack, and cures a lot of sins....?
About that KB3000850 -
ReplyDeleteI forgot to mention that there are two other smaller related ones that should be installed before that bigger one will install correctly,
so you may need to check your installed updates, to see if all that was actually done.
On mine, it didn't install automatically with Windows Update, and I had to go to the website for Microsoft Downloads to get it and its two others downloaded and installed properly.
You might have to do that.
The two others you should have installed first are KB3003057 and KB3014442.
