Explorer crashes when clicking on My Documents

Won't open My Docs

Saturday, November 12, 2005 by hotrod11 | Discussion: ObjectDock

Recently when I click on My Documents link in my ObjectDock it brings up an explorer crash and it won't open My Docs. And the shortcut won't open My docs until I restart the computer. I can right click on the shortcut and explore to my docs, but I can't simply left click. I've tried adding a shortcut with the whole path to my docs, but no avail. Sometimes after a fresh reboot it will open My Docs a few times and then it eventually gives me an error. Can anybody help?

I would start by saving the theme > unloading ObjectDock > clearing the ObjectDock cache folder - here is a mini tutorial on clearing cache http://corkyo.wincustomize.com/Articles.aspx?SID=5463&AID=82461

Restart ObjectDock (default settings will load) > use Dock Settings dialog to load your saved theme and test it.

Post again if this fails, and someone will help if possible.

Thanks Wizop. That worked for the better part of the day today. But it eventually crashed again. So I'm back to broken My Doc link in my ObjectDock until I restart the computer. I'm also running Konfabulator if that helps anybody.

It is possible that Konfabulator and OD are not compatable. Does it happen when you are not using both?
