Windows Explorer crashing.

September 12, 2007 2:25 PM from

When I apply a custom icon package - specifically one that I have created, it applies just fine, but when I restart my machine, explorer.exe crashes and restarts, and keeps looping. Once I reset the package to Windows default, it behaves just fine. I have loaded packages from the website, which load just fine. Does anybody know what is causing exploder to become unhappy? Is it something simple like all the icons have to be the same size? Is there a size limit?

There's another thread about this. Go to the IP folder and rename iprepair.dll to iprepair.dll.bak and that'll fix it up. This problem drove a few of us nuts - who would have thought IP could screw up explorer.
