    I'm running Win7 Ultimate 64bit. Whenever I try to create a new folder in 1 of my partitions I get a msg that "There was a problem... ", then it crashes. Of course, I rebooted, but short of that I'm clueless on what would cause that.

    HELP!

    Thanks Evan. However, I must not be as tech savvy as you. I don't see any option to sort anything, as the instructions say. I disabled some of the likely culprits, but that didn't fix anything. I know you're only the messenger that was kind enough to send the link, I'm just hoping someone else will come along if you're out of options.

    Thanks,

    So you downloaded and ran the ShellexView program correct? Did you disable all non microsoft shell extensions?

    That's just it. Sorry to be "SLOW ", but there REALLY isn't a menu option ANYwhere for non-M'soft ext., nor is there any sorting features that I could find.

    Yes there is. You have to sort the list by the product name category.

    Take a look at the screenshot below to see how to sort the shell extensions.
