Error Code windows-explorer-crash — Windows 11

Postup řešení

1. 1 Press Ctrl+Shift+Esc to open Task Manager. If Task Manager doesn't open, press Ctrl+Alt+Delete and select 'Task Manager' from the screen. This gives you a way to control your system even if the desktop is unresponsive.
2. 2 In Task Manager, go to the 'Processes' tab. Look for 'Windows Explorer' under 'Apps'. Right-click it and select 'Restart'. This will close and reopen Explorer, which often fixes the crash immediately. Your taskbar and desktop will disappear for a second and then come back.
3. 3 If Explorer crashes repeatedly, it might be a corrupted system file. Press Windows key + R, type 'cmd', and press Ctrl+Shift+Enter to open Command Prompt as administrator. Type 'sfc /scannow' and press Enter. This scans and repairs system files. Wait for it to finish (it can take 10-15 minutes).
4. 4 If the problem persists, check for problematic shell extensions. Download a free tool called 'ShellExView' from NirSoft (search for it online). Run it, and look for third-party extensions (they are not from Microsoft). Right-click and disable them one by one, restarting Explorer each time, until the crash stops.
5. 5 Update your graphics driver. Press Windows key + X and select 'Device Manager'. Expand 'Display adapters', right-click your GPU, and select 'Update driver'. Choose 'Search automatically for drivers'. A faulty graphics driver can cause Explorer to crash, especially when rendering icons or thumbnails.
