Hi guys, just noticed this problem the other day.

when i try to open my pictures or my videos i get the error " Windows Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience"

Error signature: AppName: explorer.exe AppVer: 6.0.2900.3156 ModName: unknown
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset: 00000000

This only happens on my pictures and my videos. all other folders are fine.
