shmedia.dll and windows explorer closes!!!

[Guest NBK]

Hi

 

I have Windows XP Pro SP3. I have a folder full of large *.avi's in

thumbnail mode. Everytime i mouse over one of the avi's Windows

Explorer closes and restarts. I checked Event Viewer and it appears

that shmedia.dll is causing this. Is there a fix?

 

Please help

See if this helps:

 

Go to Start/Run/CMD and type in: regsvr32 /u shmedia.dll

To re-enable it: regsvr32 shmedia.dll

 

Added info:

 

AVI Search Remove (Line 74)

Manual:

 

Go to Start/Run/Regedit and navigate to the key below and delete the default

data (right pane).

 

Or:

 

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\SystemFileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler
