The crashes do not stall my system its just that the pop up window shows up saying I have restart windows explorer again. I'm wondering if its a program I installed or something else. I do not want to reinstall windows 7 in order to fix this problem. Any help is appreciated. Please let me know if more information is required. Thank you.

Continual Windows Explorer crashes. Depending on my activity, how many windows/programs I was opening and closing as often as every few minutes.
For me, it was the Trend Micro Internet Security Suite. I took that out, life is good again and my new computer is finally performing as I expected it would.
A pity, I've been with them since they were PCCillin.
Hi Andre,
I see you've helped many people with Explorer crashes. I've followed your instructions by downloading your .reg file to have WER create the crash dumps. I've uploaded 4 dump files to Skydrive. Can you help me?

I was able to figure this out using WinDbg. Our issues were related to an out-of-date version of Tortoise SVN.
