Whenever I right click on any of my icons, I get the message "Explorer.exe
has encountered an error and will close" and then my computer freezes. I have
looked everywhere for a solution but any that I find do not apply to the
problem that I have. AppName: explorer.exe
ModName: mxstdctx.dll

Can anyone help me? I know pretty much about computers but this really has
me stumped.

See this link. It could be associated with one of the right click menu
extensions behaving badly.

Right-click is slow or weird behavior caused by context menu handlers
