| Apex Master Tech Apprentice | I have a comp with win xp that was working fine and still does for the most part, however, any time I try to use windows explorer it will open and then my desktop will refresh and explorer closes. I noticed this earlier this week but I didn't have time to pursue it It doesn't matter where I try to start explorer like right clicking a folder inside another folder or using the explorer icon it always refreshes back to the desktop Otherwise everything seems to work fine Any ideas? | |

| Have you tried a repair install? It might do the trick without having to reinstall XP altogether. Also, there are software alternatives to Explorer out there that are just as good, if not better, than Explorer. For example: A43 Universal Explorer or a few of the apps here | ||
