I use windows 11 23h2 this happened after the latest update, and happens at shutdown.
sfc /scannow, ran it three times. I do not know what to place on the command line to run
DISM. DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth does NOT WORK. I am frustrated, and nerves are getting bad.
I am NEW to windows 11 and just installed it on my High End Gaming Computer. I am frustrated, after gaming, seeing this
when I shut down.
I NEED HELP NOW please.
I cannot run DISM, till I get the correct command line sequence.
Thanks.
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
I wanted to try your fix but I am a bit hesitant to try it. I have windows home edition and even though you can install group policy editor on it - apparently on the home version it doesn't actually work properly. Some people have enabled it but doesn't actually change anything - so I am not sure if this fix will even work for me.

Okay, this is a way to totally eliminate the explorer.exe error message, regardless what’s plugged in, and whether you log off, shut down or restart the computer. It requires Win 10/11 PRO, or you need to enable group policy editor in home edition.
You can find that hack here:
https://windowsreport.com/enable-gpedit-windows-11/
Start by making a batch file that kills the explorer.exe process.
Open notepad and paste in this line.
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
Save the file as Shut_Down_Script.bat or whatever you prefer to name it. Put somewhere safe, like your documents folder.
Use WIN+R to run gpedit.msc (Group policy editor)
In the left panel:
Drill Down to Computer Policy > Windows Settings > Scripts (Startup/Shutdown)
Double Click Shutdown in the right panel and click Add
Browse to and highlight the batch file you made, and click open , then OK, and Ok again
In the left panel:
Drill Down to User Configuration > Windows Settings > Scripts (logon/Logoff)
Double Click Logoff in the right panel and click Add
Browse to and highlight the same batch file and click open, then OK, and OK again
Close the editor. Done.
CP59 Gave me this fix above in this post.

explorer - Application Error
The instruction at 0x00007FFE581E3ACA referenced memory at 0x0000000000000024. The memory could not be written.
Yes, I actually posted that a few pages back as I was experimenting. I have one for restarting as well. But, it didn't stop the error popping up if you just log off. You need a third script with the /l at the end. You can even put them off the desktop, and send shortcuts which can have custom icons that represent what they do. However...
With the group policy and script, it becomes totally invisible because you log off, or reboot, or shut down normally, without any changes to standard behavior. Don't sell yourself short. The group policy changes I posted are really simple to do and undo. Ad you only need one short script in a batch file.
Hi I am not that computer savvy and don't want to mess around with the group policy editor but would a simple script or bat file
like this work
taskkill /F /IM explorer.exe
shutdown.exe /s /t 00
So instead of pressing shutdown in windows just run .bat file and it would kill the explorer app and shutdown at the sametime.
Could this work just as good????
