Windows Explorer has stopped responding

I did a search for it, but decided against reading 50 threads with the same
subject name. The ones I did look at don't appear to be the same issue (they
appear to crash on startup, or when looking at a specific folder).

I have the following issue:
Open 2 Windows folders,
Close a folder,
Windows Explorer has stopped responding.

It's a good thing I tell it to open windows in a seperate memory space so
that it doesn't kill the desktop completely. I think the issue started after
installing the last flurry of hotfixes (possibly the ones in the last (R.I.P)
version of Autopather?).

Anyone else had this issue, or know of a solution? If it means uninstalling
a particular hotfix then I'll gladly do it!

hi chris
i'm from belgium. have the same problem. immediately after starting the
computer i already get this message, windows explorer does not respond.
automatically it restarts, and than for a while i can use the explorer. but
sometimes it just does not work at all.
same thing with a flickering screen, i saw a post by someone else, who has
the same problem. me too, it just goes black for some seconds and that really
happens very much during a computer session.
