xplorer2.exe has generated errors and will be closed...

[hughhyatt]

Whenever I right click on a file in xplorer2 LITE and try to "Send To" the "3½ Floppy (A)", Win2K puts up a dialog box titled "Program Error" that says:

xplorer2.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.
You will need to restart the program.

An error log is being created.

Two questions:
1) Where is this error log and what can it tell me?
2) Why is xplorer2 LITE consistently resulting in this behavior?

[fgagnon]

1. the error log should be located at [on w2000]:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\DrWatson
or, [on XP]:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\Dr Watson

2. I don't know; maybe the error log can help.

How does your WindowsExplorer behave for same action?
& does it matter whether you have a writeable diskette in A: with enough space to hold the selected file ?

How does your WindowsExplorer behave for same action?

Works fine. It also worked fine with 2xExplorer before I replaced it with xplorer2.

does it matter whether you have a writeable diskette in A: with enough space to hold the selected file ?

If there's no diskette in A:, or it's not writeable or it doesn't have enough space, I get an appropriate warning, then xplorer2 quits with the same dialog box message shown above.

In all cases, drwatson.log indicates the following:

Code: Select all

    Application exception occurred:
