    Unhappy Context menu error:windows is stopped working after right click a file

    Hey,

    everytime i right click on a file my windows explorer is stopped working.

    With some files it works but 9/10 not.

    I have already tried:
    -deleted .reg files.
    -disable enable context files with autoruns or shellexview
    -replace explorer.exe
    -replace shell32.dll
    -deleted broken .reg files with Ccleaner.exe
    -scan my system on virusses with:
    *Norton 360
    *Microsoft Security Essentials
    -scan for
    issues with cmd with the commands:
    *sfc.exe scannow
    *sfc /scannow
    *sfc /scanonce
    *sfc /scanboot
    *sfc /VERIFYFILE=c:\windows\system32\kernel32.dll
    Here is a video that I made. (watch in HQ for see the txt).

    <span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51); background-color: rgb(250, 250, 250); ">




    PS: sorry for my bad English because i come from Belgium and I'm 14
    and I had not enough for my English exam

    Have you tried this step:

    Download the ShellExView is an excellent tool to view and manage all installed shell extensions. The rule is to disable non-Microsoft context menu handlers *one-by-one* and verify if the problem is solved. If disabling one does not solve the problem, undo the disabled item and disable the next non-Microsoft handler. Do the same until the problem is solved and finally identify the culprit. Scroll right to see the Company Name column in ShellExView.

    I second that. Resolved the issue every time. It's some program that installs itself and puts something into your context menu that crashes Explorer when you try to access it.
