![Idea [I]](/emoticons/emotion-55.gif) No more Windows Vista Explorer crashes
|

I found a solution for getting rid of Explorer crashes when running
Ventuz on Windows Vista. When browsing forVentuz files (VZS and VPR for
example) either in the regular Windows Explorer or in Ventuz File Open
dialogs, the explorer and Ventuz crash instantly. I finally found out
that the problem is related to explorer shell extensions installed by
other applications such as Adobe's CS3 products - especially Acrobat.
These
shell extensions are usually icons added to the Right-Click Context
Menus and File Handlers. There is a simple tool called "ShellEx Viewer"
which allows you to browse all registered shell extensions and
deactivate specific ones. The application can be downloaded here:
http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/shexview.html
Run ShellEx Viewer
and deactivate all red marked entries. Most entries are for Adobe
products and usually also WinRar, WinZip and maybe nVidia related.
Restart your system and Ventuz and the Windows Explorer won't crash
anymore.

Since this does not seem to work for everyone here is a small Regestry-File which diables the thumbnails for the Ventuz scenes.
Just unzip and double-click the .reg file and restart your computer!
After that the explorer should not crash anymore!
Best Regards
