    Default Control Panel

    Hi, I have this problem when I go to launch Control Panel.

    I get "Windows Explorer has stopped working"
    then
    "Windows Explorer is restarting"

    and it happens every time I open it.
    How can I get it working?

    It can also be a problem if you use sam boardcaster

    I dont know the reason why but a certain file stops you going on to control panel.

    Corrupt file causes this ether caused by improper shutdowns, virus/malware or uninstalling a program that randomly takes an important dll with it!

    as said the way to solve it is ether do a "repair installation" of windows, or reinstall the latest service pack.

    It can also happen when theres a corrupt file in the directory that windows explorers looking at but as your on control panel thats not the case

    Service Pack 1 fixes most of these problems.

    Its the firebird server included in sam broadcaster that caused this to happen on mine
    This is our situation and we're happy to be here,
    I wouldn't change this place for anything.
