Windows Explorer crashing - Fault Module Name = StackHash_6b11
I'm posting a new question about this because though there are many discussions about windows explorer crashing none of them seem to address this specific cause / crash report. Windows Explorer crashes - fairly often. It restarts without a problem. I just re installed Windows 7 - a clean install with a formatted boot drive. I was having this problem before. It may be connected to a network drive - I think it happens when I browse a network drive. However I am not completely certain that this is the only time it happens. Another possibly connected issue is that the copy/paste sometimes stops working in W/Exp. Copying does not cause the crash or prophecy an impending crash - however it is another pointer that may help someone tell what is broken! thanks for any help with this!

Hi Emilio, Did you make any changes to the computer prior to the issue? This issue could be caused by some third part program or some dll file corrupted. Method 1: Step 1: I would suggest you to boot the computer into safe mode with networking and check if the issue persists. Starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and services. If a problem doesn't reappear when you start in safe mode, you can eliminate the default settings and basic device drivers and services as possible causes. Windows Startup Settings (including safe mode) http://windows.microsoft.com/en-in/windows-8/windows-startup-settings-including-safe-mode Step 2: If the issue still persists, then the issue also could be due to some third party program causing the issue. Clean boot will eliminate software conflicts that occur when you install a program or an update or when you run a program in Windows. You may also troubleshoot or determine what conflict is causing the problem by performing a clean boot. How to perform a
Also, the module which appears to be causing the crash, the NInput.dll (Microsoft Pen and Touch Input Component) is a component of Windows. However another, possibly third party, module may actually be causing the crash. If the error persists I would recommend to capture a user-mode dump of the explorer.exe crash to get more information on the crash and see if the cause of the crash can be pinpointed. You can configure Windows to create user-mode dumps. Create a System Restore Point first. If you copy and paste the following in Notepad and save as a .reg file (save with the .reg extension and give it any name such as explorerdump.reg) then right-click the .reg file and select "Merge" to add to the registry, a .dmp file at the time explorer.exe crashes should be created in the C:\CrashDumps folder: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps\explorer.exe] "DumpFolder"=hex(2):43,00,3a,00,5c,00,43,00,72,00,61,00,73

Also, although the windows.storage.dll appears to be causing the crash it may be another module actually causing the crash. I might suggest to try to obtain a user mode dump which has the potential to pinpoint the cause. You can configure Windows to create user-mode dumps. Create a System Restore Point first.

Explorer.exe Crashes everytimes I acces a certain folder.
Hi, Everytime I try to open a certain file folder, my explorer.exe crashes. Its a Lenovo M73e on windows 10 pro x64. Here are the logs of the APPCRASH. Version=1 ApplicationIdentity=48A53671264CE3AA92E4A951433AA734 MetadataHash=-712841716
Can you recall if you made any changes before this problem started? Like the display size in your PC? If you have, try reverting to the default size and let's see if it address the issue. Looking forward to hear from you. Regards.
So this happens only with one (or a few) folders and not all? What's inside those folders? Do you have the Preview pane open in Explorer? If so, try closing it and then accessing the same locations.
Hi, I have already done a SFC and it came out with no errors. I also ran a Chkdsk, but I don't think it would fix anything regarding this issue. Thank you, Yannick Leblanc
The folder only contains a PDF file. I have tried to turn off the Preview Pane, but it didn't change the outcome. If turning off the Preview pane didn't help, turn off the Show thumbnails option in case it's enabled and check again. Which PDF viewer are you using? One of its shell extensions must be causing the crashes.
Its in a shared folder on our network. but other files in other folders are working fine.
It crashes before selecting the file. as soon as I enter the folder. Other folder with PDF files do work correctly. I have tried the Show thumbnail option and it still crashes. Adobe Acrobat DC 2015 is the PDF viewer used.
Is the folder for the user's a local folder or is it a shared network drive?
If the issue persists I might suggest to try to obtain a user mode dump which has the potential to pinpoint the cause. You can configure Windows to create user-mode dumps.

Hi, When did the problem begin? Did you make any changes or perform any updates recently? Let's run the System File Checker to help us check and restore any corrupted files. In case you encounter any errors, please let us know so we can look into it. Update us with the result. Regards.
This happens in a few file for one of our user, and then explorer crashes randomly for another one. The folder only contains a PDF file. I have tried to turn off the Preview Pane, but it didn't change the outcome.

Just wanted to ask if this can have anything to do with with the large number of items in the context menu for files. Can it be? I would say it is possible, but I doubt it. I would install one of the programs you removed to see if you can duplicate this again.
Thank you for the help. Instead of getting into the clean boot mode, I just uninstalled all the application except Norton Internet Security and uninstalled and reinstalled the latest version of Ad muncher. Lets see if I get the error again I will know its among these two. And if nothing happens will install the uninstalled applications one at a time each week. Currently, since the removal there has not been any crashes and the system seems more responsive than before.

File Explorer crashing in Windows 10 msvcrt.dll
I have one person who is having Windows File Explorer crashing when attempting to copy files from local storage to OneDrive. The issue carries over despite the computer having Windows 10 Professional reinstalled, and ** no one else with the same applications and build is having the same issue. ** AppCrashView is giving the following information from Windows Error Reporting Version=1 Any ideas would be appreciated ***Post moved by moderator to the appropriate category.***
That seems to be standard settings. Can you do the following to double-check: Windows Key + R > then in the Open box type %localappdata%/crashdumps > OK Are the any explorer.exe dump files in that folder?
I've tried creating a userdump on the machine via the registry, but the dump doesn't actually get created. Can you see how that is setup in the registry by checking the following registry key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\Windows Error Reporting\LocalDumps Expand LocalDumps and click on explorer.exe Can you post a screenshot of the right window which has the DumpCount, DumpFolder and DumpType.
Finally cooperating, got 2 explorer mini-dumps, from the looks of it, along with a stickynote dump
Can you provide the dump files via a public folder on OneDrive or similar site or you can email them to me - my email address is in my profile.

Hi Paul, To isolate this matter, we have some questions for you: When did this issue start? Were there any changes made before the issue occur? What other troubleshooting steps have you done so far? Let us know how it goes. Regards.
Here is some info from the Explorer crash: *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for VCRUNTIME140.dll *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for GROOVEEX.DLL *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for GROOVEEX.DLL *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for sppc.dll *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for sppc.dll *** WARNING: Unable to verify timestamp for FileSyncShell64.dll *** ERROR: Module load completed but symbols could not be loaded for FileSyncShell64.dll Probably caused by : msvcrt.dll ( msvcrt!terminate+29 ) There is a reference to the FileSyncShell64.dll which is a OneDrive shell extension and this may be significant if there is any media involved not formatted as NTFS (eg. formatted as exFAT) There are some similarities with OneDrive crashing in the following link (involvement of OneDrive extension(s)): https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windows/en-US/cce12e54-3c68-48cd-a057-f62e20334420/onedriveexe-crashes
Took me a while to get it, sorry, been a bit busy with the rest of my office. The user is only getting the errors after she's moving numerous files to OneDrive, the error happens at random, but usually the more files moved, the quicker the error pops up, and a reboot only resolves it temporarily
Oddly, this is happening even when not copying directly to OneDrive, user's Desktop/Documents/Favorites are linked within the profile to a local server and are not actually stored on the local computer's hard drive. When the user copies a number of files from a subfolder on the desktop to one under Documents, she has also experienced these crashes. The other wrinkle that I can't figure out the cause, is that explorer.exe will not relaunch after it crashes, and even trying to run it from Task Manager causes the process to show up for a few seconds, and then close. Only running userinit from the Task Manager will relaunch explorer.exe with the Taskbar, Start menu and desktop view. I'll try to see if I can snag any more crash dumps, and see if it's all caused by OneDrive. Reading into crash dumps is not something I have any past experience with.
Issue started several weeks ago, but no specific software has been installed in the interim. No other changes aside from Windows updates have been made. I've run chkdsk, sfc /scannow, attempted system restore (which fails with a generic error, despite AV being disabled), I've run dism /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth I've tried to use procdump to determine the actual root of the crash, which has now caused explorer.exe to not restart when it does crash (user isn't too happy with that), along with adding the registry entry for having WER create a userdump, which has also not been successful. I've run Malwarebytes on it, with nothing being found. Safe boot aka Clean Boot is not going to help, as the user is running into the issue when moving files from her machine locally to OneDrive, and Safe Boot will prevent her from being able to have the appropriate services running.

This is not a malware removal forum. And since you have used ComboFix I'm reluctant to suggest you try any of the standard removal methods. You should not use ComboFix except under the direction of a "malware removal specialist." And I noted a mention of McAfee in those files...be advised McAfe and MSE should not be used on the same computer.

Hi, · Was there any recent changes made on the computer prior to the issue? Follow these methods and check if it helps: Method 1: Follow the troubleshooting steps from the KB article and check if it helps. Error message when the Explorer.exe process crashes on a Windows XP SP2-based computer: "STOP 0xc0000005" (Also applicable for Windows XP SP3) http://support.microsoft.com/kb/938828 Method 2: I would suggest you to perform a clean boot on the computer and check if any third-party program is causing the issue. How to configure Windows XP to start in a "clean boot" state http://support.microsoft.com/kb/310353 Note: After using Clean Boot to resolve the issue follow “ Steps to configure Windows to use a Normal startup state ” under step 4. Method 3: I would also suggest you to optimize Windows XP for better performance and check if it helps: http://www.microsoft.com/athome/setup/optimize.aspx
If you have SP3 installed, you also have KB938828 installed. You can read here all of the things that are included when installing SP3 (including that update), so you should not have to install it again. If you are getting DEP errors, then I would suspect a third party Explorer extension. If somebody suggests you make a DEP exception for Explorer, that is the wrong idea. DEP errors occur when XP shuts down an application because it feels threatened by it. XP should never feel threatened by it's own stuff - like Windows Explorer or Internet Explorer. If XP give you a DEP error from either of those applications, something is wrong with them and the best thing to do is to figure out what is wrong and fix it (or I suppose you can just start trying things and maybe get lucky). We also don't know a darn thing about your system, so that makes blind troubleshooting mostly a crapshoot. But, let's see how you get on with this Clean Boot and Optimize idea from the Microsoft Support Engineer an
