Richgt click extraction with Winrar causes XYplorer to crash
Richgt click extraction with Winrar causes XYplorer to crash
Hi, I have XYplorer latest version and WinRAR 4.01 64 Bits in Windows 7 64 Bits. Most of the times when I right click in a compressed file and use the shell extension to extract a file (using WinRAR engine, not XYplorer own engine) XYplorer simply crashes (Windows shows a pop up with "XYplorer stopped working" and closes). Some other times it doesn't crash. I'd say it crashes 7 of 10 times.
I can easily recreate the error. Any clues? I'm lost

try (un)checking options, extended, custom drag and drop menu.
its the only thing tht comes to me mind unless youre having problems due to non-
native support for x64 which may be not a case otherwise tons of other usrs should
be complaining already.

Thank you, I have unchecked it. Will report back after some time of use.
Re: Richgt click extraction with Winrar causes XYplorer to crash
I think it did the trick. No more crashes since I unchecked that option. I'll keep fingers crossed.
Thank you Code Lobster.

3rd party shell extension are a known cause of crashes ever since. Usually these are products from rather obscure sources. I'm surprised that WinRAR appears to be one of them.

I have had the same problem today
WinRAR is the only 3rd party shell extension application I have installed. This bug is killing me
