    For some reason im getting windows explorer errors popping up after a blue screen crash.
    This just happens when idle on desktop.

    Im using windows 7 64bit ultimate.
    Never had an issue, it only started after a firefox update today.
    Any ideas folks?

    Just checked the event viewer but i cant find it.
    Lastnight i googled the error and it came up with som ething about firefox.
    It suggested turning off private browsing which i did,i left the pc on all night but this morning it was not responding.
    If it happens today and gives up an error ill post it here.

    I just ran sfc /scannow via an elevated command prompt as suggested on the net.
    After the scan finished it said

    Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files and successfully repaired
    them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
    example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log

    When i try to view the CBS.log it says access is denied.

    I wonder is this the problem fixed or could it be firefox.
