Vista - Windows explorer keeps closing and does not restart.

**pjjppj** · 12-31-2008

I have had this problem for about a few months and a system restore hasn't helped. Does anyone have any idea if this could be a virus or an error?

Certainly it could be either but there's no way for anyone to help you with
focused advice because you haven't provided any information about your
computer. Here are general steps to take and also links to show you what
details to include in your next post:

The First Question Of Troubleshooting: If the problem is new, what changed
between the time things worked and the time they didn't?

The Second Question of Windows Troubleshooting: what is the malware/virus
status of the machine? If you think it is clean, what programs (and
versions) did you use to determine this?

Be sure the computer is clean:
