nvcpl.dll - Explorer crashes when you right-click on a folder.

i get an error message that windows explorer needs to restart when I right click on a folder in windows explorer and in the start menu. I haven' t removed the problem but I disabled it. I'm nervous because I don't know what I'm doing. I followed the instructions and found the problem really easily. Most of the context menus were microsoft and I had a rough idea of when the problem began so I matched the time with the file create date. tested it, AND IT WORKED.
