explorer.exe crashes on right-click in Start menu Sunday, August 17, 2008 at 3:28 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Sordid (74 messages posted) Hi, my explorer.exe almost always crashes when I try to right-click something in my Start menu. The error report usually looks something like this: AppName: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.5512 ModName: ntdll.dll ModVer: 5.1.2600.2180 Offset: 0002ae22 Occassionally it also crashes when right-clicking stuff outside of the Start menu, in which case different dlls might come up as well, such as shell32.dll or msvbvm60.dll. It seems pretty much random as far as I can tell. I would greatly appreciate any help in fixing this, it's really rather annoying, and I don't even know where to start.
