Finder Crashes and Relaunches Every Few Minutes

Question

As the title states, every few minutes, or sometimes less than a minute, Finder crashes and relaunches.
Here is the info from Console, but I don't know what it means.
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

Go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key and choose Library. Then go to Preferences folder and trash these files:
com.apple.finder.plist
com.apple.sidebarlists.plist
Then, restart, or log out and in again.
(You will have to reset a few finder prefs the way you like them.)
If you can't do that because of Finder problems try starting in Safe Mode and doing the same.
If neither of these options works then boot up holding command-r keys into your Recovery Volume and re-install OS X
