CPU Usage 100% When Opening Video folder

[robi450]

Hi guys

I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32bit

When I open my Video folder , my CPU usage goes to 99-100%.

Task manager indicates Explorer.exe is the process using 99% of this.

It remans 99-100% until I close explorer.exe and after I restart.

I don't know why Exporer.exe would suddenly start using all my system resources when I open a video folder. :confused02:

After I read maybe the problem is FLV video...

Any ideas?

What codec pack do you have installed?

What codec pack do you have installed?

K-Lite codec pack 7.0

I would try uninstalling it see if the problem continues

If the problem goes away I would then reinstall the codec pack and separate the different file types (avi, flv, mkv, etc) and see which one is the cause the high cpu usage

I think it may be a explorer thumbnail issue

Thanks for your help. :thumbsup_anim:

It was codec problem.

Now I can open any video folder.

Now...to find the thumbnail that was causing the problem and disable it for that filetype

Or find a codec pack that does not have the issue

Try to use:

FFDShow (latest)

Gom Player (latest)

You should be able to play anything
