Hi all, when ever I right click on the recycle bin or My computer or drive icons etc Explorer crashes with a message "Explorer caused an invalid page fault in Shell32.dll at 023f:7fcfc68f"
Any idea on a fix for this? I am running Win98 and IE5.0. Will a new SHell fix all?

I had a lot of page faults a while ago
it was not a software problam it was that the dimms were two different speeds 70ns and 100ns. The shop had put the wrong upgrades in for the motherboard could only run 100ns correctly
I dont know if this will help your problam as it might be something else but it might be something worth rembering

I'm getting a similar error (just at another address); I also have Win 98 with IE5 - did you load SP1 on your machine?

Shell32.dll appeared to be corrupt one way or another when I used WordPerfect 7.0. Maybe this could be the consequence of using Fixxit 99. This software tends to help you with registerproblems etc. using WinXX. With Win95 Fixxit is a small disaster; but the problem seems to be solved after upgrading it. With Win98 & an update of Fixxit I thought I wouldn't have any problems at all........
Wrong! WP doesn't work anymore.....lucky me...

I'm running Win98 and IE5 also and getting similar page faults at address O15f:7fce23b3.
there must be someone out there with answers to this.

I'm getting the error for "shell32.dll @ 016F:7fcb1946, invalid page fault module when I attempt to open Wordperfect 7. I have the entire suite, but this only happens when opening WP7. Interestingly enough, it will run if I move the error message out of the way, however, if I close the error message, the program will close as well. Help would be very appreciated

Found the answer to the shell.dll invalid page fault error fo extensions 016F:7FCB1946, 015F:FCE3FB4, and a few others. Apparently, this is unique to running Corel's earliest version of WP7 with Win98 (7.0.0.2327 & 7.0.1.9) Corel doesn't know exactly how it happens, but they gave me the following work-around that stopped the error message for me: Change the default document folder in WP7 to "my documents". As strange as it may seem - it worked. The other solution intales adding the /x startup option to the short cut. Finally - they suggest upgrading to the newest version of WP7. However, the earliest versions have to be completely reinstalled by obtaining a CD from Corel for a modest sum of $10. This wouldn't help much if you're running a bootleg.
For more details on the quick-fixes, visit Corel's support page and look for document #18157. This was a big help to me!

I'm getting a similar error, but at address 018f:7fcb1946, and I can't seem to find anyone else having this problem. It's driving me crazy!

I'm having errors when I first start up and try to get into my profile. Right from the very start it says that I have a corrupt shell32.dll file. I went into safe mode to see if i can recopy but when I look, there are two "shell32.dll" files. Is that supposed to be or not? I also often get page fault errors.

where do i find corel's support page.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!EMAIL--- WS0825@AOL.COM

I use Fixit99 often to defrag & for Registry maintenance. I started getting the error message 'shell32.dll file is linked to missing export shlwapi.dll:shreggetusvaluea' error condition every time I tried to open PaperPort Deluxe 5.1 . I finally solved the problem by downloading the latest update of IE5.5 . Hope this helps

Hi everybody,
I have more or less a simoilar problem with
shell32.dll.
But the error message is different.
"...EAccess protection fault in module shell32.dll at address ??D090???"
If i click ok., explorer terminates.
i receive this problem when i rightclick any folder on my desktop or in explorer.
Can you please help..........

Hey, I'm getting a similar problem with
shell32.dll at 0177:7fce23b3...however, I
don't have Word Perfect and the errors
started after I uninstalled IE5 and
returned to IE4. Additionally, I had been
having trouble ever since I removed
NeoPlanet from my computer (which is
why I tried reinstalling IE in the first place).
Any ideas anyone?
