Ive downloaded over 2gb of diy mp4 video files (as 5 rar files) & these then extract as 10 seperate programmes (roofing,kitchen,bathroom etc), but im having trouble viewing them! Ive extracted the whole lot into one folder but if I then browse to this folder through windows explorer I get the message that 'windows explorer has stopped working' I then tried opening windows media player as I thought of browsing to the program that I wanted to view, but this just crashes the player & it too closes down. Ive tried using Divx player, RealPlayer & others but still no joy I then went back to the downloaded rar file & tested the archives in winrar (says theyre ok) as well as extracting just the one programme to a specified folder, but again when I try to open this it crashes Ive scanned the archive using AVG & avast & malawarebytes just in case its got a virus but nothing came up Any ideas of what I could do next before I give up?!
I had this problem, try searching google for "folder crash preview" or similar. It's something to do with the cache for the preview of video files, I think you can turn it off in the folder options in a folder without videos and then apply those changes to all other folders.
