Re: Windows Explorer closing

Sometimes,after the error has occured, she can go back and repeat the actions
and there will be no problems.

Sometimes it will happaen when a folder is opend just for looking.

Other times it will happen when files are being moved from one folder to
another.

Yes, it does appear to be random or intermittant.

>OK, I see.. So when it happens, does it happen to the same files that you are able to copy at some other time? Or does this error only occur when you're copying/moving a particular set of files? So what I'm about is: Is this error reproducible or is it completely random?

>>>Bill, to be honest, this error message doesn't sound too good. Am I right with my assumption that both of you are not too much of computer experts? I got this impression from what you've been writing. In that case I'd suggest you just re-install Vista and everything will be fine again.

>>>The only problem I see is that you apparently can't copy your personal files from the Documents folder to your D: drive (I hope you have one).

>>>Please let me know if this solution would be feasible for you and if you have your documents saved to a save location (= any other drive than C:). In that case just insert the Vista DVD and re-install your system. Please make sure you have your other software CDs at hand to re-install them as well.

>>>If you don't have saved your files to a safe location, just drop me a note to the newsgroup to give you some hints about two options for saving them ( 1 = starting Vista in Safe Mode, 2 = copying files using the Command Prompt).
