explorer.exe the "filer a.k.a file manager)" keeps crashing, always.
The
explorer.exe that handles the desktop and GUI remains unharmed.
It happens to 2 of my "Windows XP Pro sp3" client's desktop computers, the install CD came with sp3, not slipstreamed and original. 6 months old installs with Surun 1.2.0.6 from day one.
And to a 3rd "Windows XP Pro sp2" notebook with sp3 updated from windows Update. 2 years old install. with Surun 1.2.0.6 around 5 months.
All in spanish language.
Problems started around one week ago in all 3 computers.
Error 1, only happened to first 2 clients
Error 0 and Error 1, both happened to my last client
I have Surun installed on my "Windows XP Pro sp3" in english. but I'm away from home, and haven't used it for a month. in 20 day, when I return home I'll see if it happens to me too.
All workstations are under a workgroup,
not a Domain

I noticed
Unicorn had a similar problem in his post

TEMPORARY LAME SOLUTIONS:
1.-Created an new USER account with Administrative Rights, that doesn't belong to Suruns group. for the first 2 clients.(they needed to work fast)
2.-Installed an alternative file manager called Explorer++, that doesn't crash, for the 3rd client, while i wait for a final solution, so that she doesn't lose the protection of Surun in her LUA account.
THKS in advanced, and I hope we can fix this, so more people can use Surun, without surprises.
I'm sure is a program that they installed, or a windows update, that is affecting Surun's interaction with explorer.exe
