wab32.dll - Explorer crashes when you right-click on a folder. |
Explorer Crashed when right clicking on a folder, when right clicking on the desktop, when attempting to create a new folder or rename in explorer and in serveral other instances. Folders could be made and named within most applications without any problem. With ShellExView I disabled just a couple I suspected with no impact. Disabling the ASUS Display Property Page (Version 7.14.10.304) solved immediately. Oddly though, I then enabled it again and the computer is back to normal with no right click problem found at all in initial testing. THANK YOU
