FYI: Explorer crash WINDOWS VISTA - RESOLVED

Post by ElDiablo »

FYI:

Hi,

I've had alot of PCs with the same problem so I thought I might post a thread on how to resolve it, in order to help other people who may have the same problem in the future, not sure where to post it though :?

SIMPTOM
Under Windows VISTA/7, when you go into Network and sharing center or Control panel, windows Explorer will crash everytime

FIX
This is caused by Firebird 1.5
Go to C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 and rename firebird2control.cpl to firebird2control.---
This will disable the Firebird controlpanel applet, thus enabling you to use Control panel and the Network sharing center once again....yay....
