IBM T61 explorer.exe hang when login

I have this issues we just purchase 5 IMB T61 and all of then have issues when login into winodws they hang up. And when you try to shut down it says explorer.exe not responding. So what I do is I end task for explorer.exe and start a new task explorer.exe and this fix the issues but I can 't keep doing this. Not too sure what else is bothering it. Sometimes just user login and the same problem occurs from the start. The users are getting tired of this. I am thinking of removing all of IBM software. I am running in a Novel enviorment. But I don't think that is the problem. Please Help.

probally a virus ,torjan or malware, or it could be that you havent updated ..

Lenovo T61 (Product 6458-W2R): explorer.exe hangs after logon - WinXP SP2

+++ english below +++
[german/deutsch]
Wir setzen in unserem Unternehmen mehrere ThinkPad T61 ein. Bei einigen dieser ThinkPad T61 (und nur beim ThinkPad T61!) haben wir inzwischen ein seltsames Phänomen, welches im Laufe der letzten 1-2 Monate auftrat und noch auftritt. Dieses Phänomen trat nicht gleichzeitig auf, sondern nacheinander. Und es tritt willkürlich auf. Der jüngste Fall ist gerade 1 Tag alt. Inzwischen sind 6 ThinkPad T61 davon betroffen.
Alle ThinkPad T61 sind Mitglieder einer Domäne (Windows Server 2003) und durchlaufen ein Loginscript. Das Loginscript beinhaltet Batchbefehle, Kix32 (für das Mappen von Netzwerklaufwerken und Druckern) und Teile der Matrix42 Empirum Management Software (für Softwaredistribution und Inventarisierung). Es werden Gruppenrichtlinien angewendet. Es werden via Matrix42 Empirum automatisch die neuen Patches und Updates seitens Microsoft auf alle Computer verteilt. Alle Computer erhalten eine unbeaufsichtigte/standardisierte Installation via Matrix42 Empirum Management Software (ähnlich einem Image und der unbeaufsichtigten Windows-Installation). Auf allen Rechnern ist Windows XP mit Service Pack 2 installiert. Spezielle Software ist in der Regel nicht drauf, nur Microsoft Office 2003, der aktuelle Acrobat Reader sowie die aktuellen Standardplayer: Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, RealPlayer, VLC media player. Ggf. noch Nero 7 Standard bzw. Platinum (Spezielle Version). Alle IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad verwenden zusätzlich die IBM/Lenovo-Utilities „ThinkVantage“. Das Phänomen tritt unabhängig davon auf, ob das ThinkPad T61 in einer Dockingstation betrieben wird oder nicht. Es ist auf jedem Computer in der Windows Registrierung eingestellt, dass der Desktop erst geladen wird, wenn das Loginscript durchgelaufen ist.
Nun zur genauen Fehlerbeschreibung:
Manchmal kann es bei einem Kaltstart vorkommen, dass nach der Anmeldung und nach dem Loginscript –während der komplette Desktop und die Startleiste bereits sichtbar sind und noch einige Dienste geladen werden– sich die explorer.exe aufhängt. Die Startleiste lässt sich nicht bedienen. Ebenfalls lassen sich dann auch auf dem Desktop keine Symbole doppelklicken.
Wir setzen auch andere Computer ein, wo dieses Phänomen nicht auftritt, u.a.:
- HP-Computer (Desktops, Evo SFF Series)
- Fujitsu-Siemens-Computer (Desktops, ESPRIMO E Series)
- IBM ThinkPad T20/21
- IBM ThinkPad T40/T41/T42
- IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T60
Das Problem tritt nur auf den noch relativ neuen ThinkPad T61 auf.
Wir haben bereits einen ziemlich ähnlichen Fall unter…

Unfortunately, I’m not fluent in the english language.
We use a few ThinkPad T61’s in our company. Meanwhile, at some ThinkPad T61’s (only ThinkPad T61!) we have a strange problem. This problem appears since the last 1-2 months and it still does exist. This problem does not appear at the same time, it does appear successive. And it appears random. The last case is 1 day old. Meanwhile, 6 ThinkPad T61 are concerned.
All ThinkPad T61 are members of a domain (Windows Server 2003) and do execute a logon script. The logon script contains Batch commands, Kix32 (for mapping network drives and printers) and parts of the Matrix42 Empirum Management software (for software distribution and inventory scan). Group policies will apply. Patches and updates will install on every computer via Matrix42 Empirum automatically. All computers get a default/unattended installation via Matrix42 Empirum Management software (everywhere between an image and an unattended Windows installation). All computers have installed Windows XP with Service Pack 2. As a rule, special software isn’t installed, only Microsoft Office 2003, the actual Acrobat Reader and the actual default players: Windows Media Player, Quicktime Player, RealPlayer, VLC media player. Sometimes, there is installed the Nero 7 Standard or rather Platinum (Special Edition) yet. All IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad use IBM/Lenovo-Utilities „ThinkVantage“ additionally. The problem exists if the ThinkPad T61 is connected to a docking station and also if the ThinkPad T61 is disconnected from a docking station. On every computer exists a registry key which arranges it that the desktop only will be loaded after the logon script did run.
Now the detailed error description:
Sometimes the explorer.exe hangs after the cold start. i.e.: The desktop (with icons and task bar) appears complete. But the computer hangs if you try to click on the task bar or double click on any icons. The computer will only run if we kill the process ‘explorer.exe’ and if we restart the explorer.exe.
We use also other computers with the same installation and the same group policies where the problem does not exist, for example:
- HP-Computer (Desktops, Evo SFF Series)
- Fujitsu-Siemens-Computer (Desktops, ESPRIMO E Series)
- IBM ThinkPad T20/21
- IBM ThinkPad T40/T41/T42
- IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T60
Only the new ThinkPad T61’s have this problem.
We have found a similar case at…

Vielen Dank / Many thanks!

I would run System Update and make sure I had all the updates available.
Another thing to try is:
1. Right-click on My Computer and click Properties
2. Click on the Advanced tab
3. Click on Settings under Performance
4. Click on Data Execution Prevention
5. Click on Turn on DEP for all programs and services except those I select, then check Windows Explorer
We had to do that to some machines here after a push from corporate of the new ScriptLogic.This solved the problem.

Explorer.exe hangs on resolution changes

I seem to have to have a very persistant, very reproducable and very annoying problem with explorer.exe just completely "hanging" frequently. This started happening near the end of November, about a month after I used Windows 7 (professional x64) with no problems. To make a long story short, it happens nearly any time my display changes (resolution or anything else).
Here's a more detailed description:
Before late November, everything worked perfectly. I don't recall what could have caused the change. I uninstalled anything I installed during or after November. I do not have anything visible on my desktop. However, any time the resolution changes, explorer.exe hangs using 50% of my cpu, or 100% of one core. Clicking on the taskbar or desktop lets me know that "Explorer.exe has stopped responding", allowing me to restart it, which I occasionally also choose to do via Process Explorer. At first, I only noticed during or after playing games, but now I have tested this thoroughly and determined that it is in fact most likely a display problem, concluded from the following pretty exhaustive list:
Unplugging my external monitor causes explorer.exe to hang.
Plugging in my external monitor also does.
Changing resolutions on either monitor, to any resolution, causes explorer.exe to hang.
Changing resolutions on the internal monitor while the external monitor is unplugged also causes a hang.
Uninstalling the ATI display drivers causes a hang.
Changing resolutions with the default Windows display drivers between 800x600 and 1024x768 (the only two options) causes a hang. (Uninstalled and followed with Driver Sweeper so no trace of the ATI display drivers are available and the display is running purely on Windows defaults.)
Installing updated ATI drivers causes a hang directly after the resolution is changed automatically.
Unchecking all options in the "Perfermance Options" causes explorer.exe to hang.
Unchecking all options but leaving visual styles on does not result in a hang (if it was on to start with).
Turning off visual styles causes the display to blink briefly before displaying the "Please wait" box and, when it is finished and the desktop is displayed again, explorer.exe has been hanging approximately since the display blink.
Running games that cause the resolution to change usually cause explorer.exe to hang, but not always. This is particularly odd. Opening the simple game Torchlight in full screen at 1280x800, does not pose a problem; however, Alt-Tabbing out of it causes the hang as well as closing it, which both revert the resolution to the desktop resolution (1920x1200). Running the game in a window is no problem. Running the game in full screen at 1920x1200 is also no problem, regardless of starting, using Alt-Tab or closing, even though the display blinks for a moment. Team Fortress 2 consistently causes explorer to hang when launching (hanging TF2 as well, until explorer has been killed). All goes well while TF2 is running, even with explorer restarted. When TF2 is closed, explorer hangs again. Thus, it always causes explorer to hang, whether opening or closing. In windowed mode, it causes no problems. I can give examples of a number of more games if it helps pinpoint the problem.
The event viewer shows no errors or warnings after a hang (except for the standard ones that are generated if the "Explorer.exe has stopped responding" dialog shows up by clicking on the taskbar or desktop. If it is killed manually before showing the dialog, nothing shows up.) It does log some information specific to ATI functions in the ACEEventLogSource which seem to be specific to an explorer freeze. No information was generated when Torchlight changed resolutions without a resulting hang but the following was generated upon closing, with an explorer hang:

Disabling all non-Microsoft Shell extensions (with ShellExView x64) didn't help.
As of writing, I have the feeling it didn't happen in safe-mode but I would need to retest this to make sure.
A clean boot yields no improvement. Changing the resolution following a clean boot still results in a hang.
Using Process Explorer, I have also checked all non-Microsoft DLL's running in conjunction with Exlporer.exe and these were only db's (some related to BitTorrent), a Comodo antivirus DLL and a bunch of Broadcom Widcomm Bluetooth files. Thus, I uninstalled all of those including the bluetooth software and drivers, unfortunately, to no avail. Changing resolutions still crashes Explorer!
My system is as follows:
ASUS M51Va Notebook
Windows 7 Professional x64
ATI Radeon HD 3650
Catalyst Version 09.12
DirectX Version 11
Direct3D Version 8.14.10.0716
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.9232
Internal monitor Generic PnP Monitor at 1200x800 32bit 61Hz
External monitor Samsung SyncMaster 2433BW/2433GW, SyncMaster Magic at 1920x1200 32bit 59Hz connected by an HDMI to DVI-D cable
Anti-virus is Comodo
If any more information is needed I'll gladly provide it! This is truly a very aggrivating problem. Particularly when gaming or hooking up displays for presentations etc. I really can't think of any thing else that could be meddling with Explorer, causing it to crash. I would love to find the source of the problem, but I'm prepared to finally bite the bullet and reinstall Windows to get rid of this extremely annoying problem. Help would really be appreciated.
If I figure anything out, I'll post the results.

Explorer.exe hangs X220 Intel HD 3000

I am dealing with an issue that is driving me crazy. Explorer.exe hangs on mouse over or right/left click. My computer is a Lenovo x220 thinkpad running windows 8.1 pro with 8 gb of ram. All diagnostic scans come back clean. Dual core intel i5 64 bit. Only started after upgrading from windows 7 to 8.1 and a clean boot doesn't help either.
I don't get a crash per say (doesn't blue screen), the system just stops responding forcing a restart of explorer.exe. I believe it only happens when my sony 19 inch monitor is connected. I have done every type of fix approach imaginable - sfc /scannow clean, Dism returns no corruptions and healthy. There are no viruses, malware, corruptions.

All drivers are up to date and the windows assessment console returns no issues with any drivers. Windows updates are all current.

Explorer.exe hangs

I've been loving my s10-3t for about almost a week now, but I'm wondering if anyone else is having explorer.exe hang? It seems to happen after changing screen rotation to or from tablet. I have upgraded to 2 GB of RAM, 7 Ultimate, and have been slowly uninstalling the Lenovo apps in an effort to narrow down the issue, and am down to Direct Share (never used), Energy Management, Screen Rotation, and One Key recovery.
It seems to happen less with the auto rotation off, but that could just be because it doesn't rotate every time I move the wrong way. The Windows event logs just state that "explorer.exe stopped interacting with Windows" (Application hang 1002), which is pretty useless. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I uninstalled the rest of the applications I don't use and they hangs seem to be much less frequent. Thanks for your help.

HRPrinting.exe hangs when printing book with 100 reports

We are currently running a Hyperion Report book with about 100 reports. We have not being able to succesfully print this book because HRPrinting.exe hangs. It does not even display data
Any ideas on how to resolve this?

It might be worth looking at "Financial Reporting Books Hang When Run In Complete Book Format [ID 1312802.1]" in Oracle Support, also check logs, check if it is a certain report causing the issue, check patches, threads can be increased though this would only be done if it is proven that it is not a different issue causing the print server to hang, log a call with Oracle.
Cheers

Explorer.exe hangs at logoff?

I experince the same problem as described in

Hi Kasper,
Now I have reinstalled my terminal server without antivirus, without printer drivers, without OEM hardware drivers, without server tools, without backup tools, without server admin tools, without applications etc, actually I have TS-role + Dotnet 3.5 and
4.0 + Citrix Xenapp6 + Silverlight + Visual C++ Redistributable. That is all...
And the behavour is exactly the same.
Eventvwr information follows. When I have the problem I have 2 warning events, when everything is OK (ie: no desktop folder redirection) I only have one, see after the faulty log :

Explorer.exe crashing when opening directory with FLV files in them

Hi,
In the past few days for no reason at all, every time I open
a folder containing FLV files, I get an error with Explorer.exe
crashing. I don't even touch a file, just opening the folder
containing them causes it.
Has anyone else experienced this issue. It getting a bit
annoying now.
All of my FLV files are created with Premier Pro CS3, and
until recently I haven't seen any issues.
Even if I use Remote Desktop into my Windows 2003 Web Server
to view the folder on Flash Media Server, my local computer drops
Explorer.exe.
cheers

it's probably because you have .flv registered as a video
file, and the explorer tries to create a video-thumbnail. (have you
installed any funky FLV video players/ or maybe a codec pack?)
If you can, try navigate to the folder in "details" view
mode..that should be fine, because details view, does not show
thumbnails.
Then try to click on one of the FLV files.. you'll see the
preview pane..and eplorer will crash.
i'm not sure how to fix this, but somehow, you should remove
.flv from the filetypes that windows conciders a video file.

Explorer.exe crashes when righ click on item in left pane on windows explorer nothing in system logs, explorer.exe restarts.

Hi to all, i have a laptop running Windows 7 Professional. The problem is strange and havent had it on any other Windows 7 machine.
If i click the folder icon on the bottom tool bar (windows explorer) then in the left hand pane expand the C drive then right click on any folder it instantly displays a dialog saying Explorer has experienced a problem and needs to close, windows is
looking for a fix for this problem (cant remember exact wording) then Explorer.exe restarts. This happens on the local C drive and Network drives.
I though it could be a permissions problem so have taken ownership of all files & folders on the C drive which made no difference, i have removed the laptop from our server / domain and it is still the same / no change.
Can anyone shed any light on this problem or offer any ideas on fixing it? the laptop is only a few months old and is i5 / 4GB RAM Dell machine running Windows 7 Pro SP1 office 2003 Pro, checked for virus & adware & all clean.

Javaw.exe hangs when activating the console

When activating the console in WebStart, it looks like WinXP doesn't release javaw.exe, even when the application gets closed. This never occurs when the console is not activated.
A possible bug ?
- Pierre-Yves

I have searched so many forums and every body (if any at all) state I need to edit my code to sort this out. Well here's a shocker! :) i dont write any code. I am installing J2RE1.4.1_02 and unfortunately due to our other applications, can only use this version. I am installing it on XP images and so far have only had a 60% success rate. Could there be an application installed or a process that is preventing the console from opening? I noticed the way the data is entered into the registry is slightly different from the successful ones. Is there a work around?
Please I am desperate as I am installing this onto 400 PC's.

2 Problems. 1. Black Screen With Only Cursor Showing 2. Explorer.exe blocked.

Hello Guys and Gals,
I am having a problem with my Laptop. First of all, my screen is black with only a cursor showing (that is not blinking) and I can only run programs through Task Manager. Second, I cannot open 'explorer.exe'. When
I try I get this error: "This app can't run on your PC. To find a PC version, check with the software publisher". I really would like help with this as I do not wish to spend another $500 on the same laptop. Also due to the fact that I have
many important files I do not wish to loose.
INFORMATION:
I have an Acer running Windows 8 (It came with it).

Thank you for your time. Cheers!

8i hangs when calling a complex EJB

Regarding 8i (8.1.6) and EJBs on an NT Server...
We have been working towards deployment of a web application, using 8i, for some time now and have overcome a number of problems encountered with EJBs (remote access via 2481, clientserverserver demo not working when connecting as any other user than the EJB owner etc.). We have found the going hard at times but we have now hit a potential showstopper problem that we can't find a way around.
We have deployed ~25 EJBs and can call them many times from our client, including EJBs calling other EJBs. However, we have a more complex EJB that acts as client to 15 other EJBs and this is hanging intermittently. Sometimes it runs OK but then hangs at different points with ORACLE.EXE taking 100%
CPU. The only recovery is to reboot the server.
In our testing we have noticed the following points...
1. Starting the database up, running some EJBs, shutting down the database and then restarting it leaves ORACLE.EXE taking ever more memory without apparently releasing any. This can be seen to get worse and worse when repeating this loop.
2. When running many EJBs using several different Oracle connections (~10 different Oracle users) ORACLE.EXE takes more and more memory. It occassionally releases some but overtime grows.
3. Deploying EJBs increases the memory usage of ORACLE.EXE significantly. The memory is not released.
Some other points...
1. The EJBs called by the main EJB are the same ones that are called OK from an external client.
2. When the server hangs it tends to be when the main EJB is a). doing the JNDI lookup on another EJB OR b). running a method within another EJB. But it is difficult to spot any clear pattern.
3. We are using //thisServer/:thisSession when calling EJBs serverside.
We suspect that there may be a resource issue that causes problems under more complex scenarios.
Questions...
1. Are there known resource management problems with 8i on NT, or have we missed something ?
2. Has anyone else got problems with ORACLE.EXE hanging when using EJBs ?
3. Does anyone have any suggestions/ solutions ?
Thanks, Andy Blears :(

Stefan,
Thanks for the input. We have now applied patches up to 8.1.6.1 (I can't find any more recent) and the problem still occurs. The behaviour may have become more predictable in that it seems to go into an eternal loop whilst trying to load classes. BUT it may work well for periods of time.
Re. the performance it seems to be OK on the small tests we have run so far but because of the problems we're having we haven't run full stress/volume tests yet...I'll let you know - Are you asking because you have experienced poor performance ?

Problem with explorer.exe when LR starts

When starting LR (V1.0) the task manager reports that explorer.exe is eating up about 50% of my CPU. Closing LR does not have an effect. Only a re-start clears it up. This is now the second time I have installed LR as there was a conflict the first time I upgraded from the beta 4 version. I have searched through many of the same folders that my LR library uses with Bridge and Windows explorer and there was no problem with explorer.exe. Only upon starting LR does the problem occur. Any advice much appreciated. Thank you!
