    Ok so i have been having issues with windows explorer a number of times.

    I usually turn my M17x on by the ALien Head button. I always put the M17x in sleep mode when I turn it off at night.

    After i turn the M17x on and log in within 5-10 min i get a message stating that "Windows Explorer has stopped working"
    Here is the screen of the reliability monitor in which the errors happened on November 17, 21, and 23.

    What could be causing this issue?

    Note: I am NOT seeing a lack of performance in anyway. Which is a good thing.

    Also anyone have suggestions on a good Cleaner for the M17x screen and Chassis?

    Thanks

    What does CCleaner do?

    I actually HATE IE lol. I use CHROME which i never have problems with so I'm good on that note.

    But thank you.
