Changing the size of virtual memory on the windows 10 PC may be the way to resolve explorer.exe application errors. The best practice is to keep virtual memory at 1.5 times the size of RAM memory.

Therefore, during the startup process, you may encounter local area network wake-up problems, dual startup and virtualization complexity, and random error codes.

Therefore, if you encounter an explorer.exe application error, disabling the Quick start feature on windows 10 can resolve this problem.

4. Run a SFC / DISM scan

SFC and DISM scanning are the most commonly used troubleshooting tools in windows 10, which can be used to repair corrupted or corrupted system files, or even to some extent restore the health of installed windows 10 images.

For convenience, you can create a SFC / DISM scan batch file, and then merge the two tools into one. That's what it is:

@ echo off date / t & time / t echo Dism / Online / Cleanup-Image / StartComponentCleanup Dism / Online / Cleanup-Image / StartComponentCleanup echo. Date / t & time / t echo Dism / Online / Cleanup-Image / RestoreHealth Dism / Online / Cleanup-Image / RestoreHealth echo. Date / t & time / t echo SFC / scannow SFC / scannow date / t & time / t pause

Save the file with a name and append the .bat file extension-for example,; SFC_DISM_scan.bat.

Run the batch file repeatedly with administrator privileges (right-click the saved file and select run as Administrator from the context menu) until no errors are reported-at this point, you can restart PC and see if the problem has been resolved.

5. Perform ChkDsk operation

If your computer's hard drive is damaged or incorrectly defragmented, you may encounter an explorer.exe application error-in which case you can start the ChkDsk operation. After the process is complete, you can restart PC and see if the problem has been resolved.
