robi450 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 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?

robi450 Posted March 21, 2011 Author Share Posted March 21, 2011 What codec pack do you have installed?K-Lite codec pack 7.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricktendo Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
