Posted March 21, 201114 yr Hi guysI'm using Windows 7 Ultimate 32bitWhen 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?
March 21, 201114 yr I would try uninstalling it see if the problem continuesIf 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 usageI think it may be a explorer thumbnail issue

March 21, 201114 yr Now...to find the thumbnail that was causing the problem and disable it for that filetypeOr find a codec pack that does not have the issue
