Full Version: TLB 4.2 causes Explorer.exe to crash
You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Have been using TLB for a couple years now and love it. A problem I am having with increasing regularity is when I right click on a toolbar entry (shortcut, menu etc) Explorer gives me the 'had a problem and has to close' error message. Only happens on TLB, not other programs. I just tried to rename an entry on the toolbar and as soon as I clicked rename I got the Explorer error and it closed.

I know that's not telling you much. Tell me what other information you need to help me troubleshoot and I'll get it right away.

OS Name Microsoft Windows XP Professional
Version 5.1.2600 Service Pack 2 Build 2600
System Manufacturer Dell Inc.
System Model Dimension 4700
System Type X86-based PC
Processor x86 Family 15 Model 4 Stepping 1 GenuineIntel 2.793 Mhz
I guess this bug can be fixed by changing the context menu template into "Without Shell/Button" (TLB Settings->Context menu)

Also please can you post here the screenshot of the context menu from the explorer. And comment every nonstandard item (what app created this menu item)

I guess the problem with some shell extension. And I can try to find it with your help.

Thank you.
Hi Yuri,

I've been experiencing the same problem. Attached is a screenshot of my context menu from within Directory Opus 9. Let me know which entries you need clarification on. Note that this context menu was generated by right clicking on a txt file.

Thanks,

Mike

UPDATE: Here's a list of all the applications from the context menu in the screencap:
