Explorer folder won’t close.
You can still use it and open up other things but it will not close. It does not crash on reboot. Greg Ro |

A folder? Which one? Explorer itself is not a folder. What are you
clicking to open this thing? -- Thanks or Good Luck, There may be humor in this post, and, Naturally, you will not sue, should things get worse after this, PCR "Greg Ro" wrote in message ... | Explorer folder won’t close. | You can still use it and open up other things but it will not close. | It does not crash on reboot. | | Greg Ro |

Yes, it matters. Or at least, it may matter, depending on what folder it is.
Please specify: is it a Windows Explorer window (dual-pane) or is it a Folder window? What is the name and location of the folder? What happens when you try to close it with the X in the upper right corner.....do you get an error message? What happens when you try to close it using the File menu Exit? What about if you use Ctrl+Alt+Delete and then End Task on the window? What if anything have you been doing in that open folder window, prior to the problem? Deleting large numbers of files? Something else? -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Greg Ro" wrote in message ... On Sat, 29 Oct 2005 19:40:35 -0400, "PCR" wrote: A folder? Which one?

Sorry I was curt. Glee has posed the question better.

OK. Still, you must be more expansive. Answer these questions, which I
have thought up independently of Glee... Please specify: is it a Windows Explorer window (dual-pane) or is it a Folder window? What is the name and location of the folder? What happens when you try to close it with the X in the upper right corner.....do you get an error message? What happens when you try to close it using the File menu Exit?

It varies on the name of the folder. d:\news Click on the x nothing happens. Alt +4 and even right click close nothing happens. It just random when it happen. After a reboot or shutdown it closes. Explorer.exe does not crash I checked for spyware and adaware and other things. Greg Ro |

No. It is just random right now. The only thing I added was a new dial-up connection. Switched isp. Greg Ro |
