Have you tried rebooting, if you have then you should try a system restore, if that fails then you'll have to reinstall windows.

Seriously it's easier to reinstall Windows 7 (then get all the latest updates afterwards) than go through all the hassle of the ol' explorer.exe crashing problem.

yea but is there anyway i can do that without using the disk??? because ive lost it :'(

Download and burn the .ISO and brn it from the link GommeInc or someone posted in the other Windows 7 thread.

Download W7 from your original destination and also download PowerISO, this gives you the chance to power up the ISO image without actually burning to a disk.

1) First and foremost ensure that your Windows is updated and scan your computer for virus and spyware. Follow it up with a Registry Cleaner run. CCleaner is a safe and good freeware. If you have bought a new laptop, maybe some pre-installed craplets are interfering ith explorer.exe. Remove unwanted trialware and de-crapify your machine then.

2) Run ChkDsk.

3) See if you a System Restore makes the problem go away.

4) Disable the Preview Pane in Explorer and see if it helps. To disable the Preview Pane, click Organize > Layout > Preview Pane.

5) Disable UAC and see if it helps.

6) Disable DEP or NoExecute Protection. Do note that Data Execution Prevention (DEP) is a security feature that can help prevent damage to your computer from viruses and other security threats. Harmful programs can try to attack Windows by attempting to run (also known as execute) code from system memory locations reserved for Windows and other authorized programs. These types of attacks can harm your programs and files. DEP can help protect your computer by monitoring your programs to make sure that they use system memory safely. If DEP notices a program on your computer using memory incorrectly, it closes the program and notifies you. It is as such a security feature. Type cmd in Vista's search bar. Rt click on search results 'cmd' and click on Run as Administrator. Then copy paste
bcdedit.exe /set {current} nx AlwaysOff
and hit enter. Reboot. This has been known to help in some earlier versions of Vista.

7) Open Explorer. Click Organize > Folder & Search Options > View > Advanced Settings > check 'Launch folder windows in a separate process' > Apply > OK.

8) Check if you have installed any helpers or add-ons to your explorer. Uninstall them. Often, even 3rd party shell extensions can cause Explorer to crash on particular actions. Several programs add items to the right click context menu. Download freeware utility ShellExView.

It will let you view & disable suspect 3rd party shell extensions. Using Trial & Error method, you may to disable / enable the extensions to try and identify if any of them are causing a problem. ShellExView can be also be used for solving contextmenu problems in Explorer, like, say, if the Right-click is slow.
9) Run sfc /scannow and at the end reboot if asked for.
10) Type wercon in your Start Menu Search bar and hit enter to open the Problem Reports & Solutions Center. In RHS panel click on View Problem History and navigate to where the problems for Explorer.exe may be mentioned. Double click on the report to open it and see if anything there helps you.

Get the drivers from your laptop manufacturer's website and put them on a USB stock before you reinstall.
