Windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.

[Bikerxxuk]

I had tried the changing extention option but used to get the same message that the file was being used and cannot re-name.


It started to happen straight after I did the fix.
I happens when i watch an avi. If I close it and then immediately right click and delete it. The box pops up as the file is deleting - Windows explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close.

If I leave it for 10 secs or so after closing it and then delete it, it deletes fine.

I have also had the box pop up if I close a folder containing avi's immediately after watching one of them.


When the error box pops up there is a link to 'more info'. Would it help if I posted this?

Thanks for your suggestions. I'll do that and see what happens.
