deondrec Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 when i first installed utorrent i created a desktop folder that the files would be saved to. at first i could go to the folder and open or move the files i downloaded. no every time i open the folder it says windows explorer has stop working and restarts explorer. can some please tell me how i can get to these files again and how i can stop this from happening? im using vista premium. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jewelisheaven Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Errr, you could have corrupted codecs trying to preview the files locking up the explorer process.I would recommend turning off ALL thumbnail views and "preview" windows.

Firon Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 Nope. Explorer is pretty broken when it comes to that feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
