On Windows XP Pro SP2, my taskbar has started freezing completely. The rest
of Explorer is working: i can launch new Folder windows, desktop is
responsive. I am running WIndows Update automatically, so should be up to
date. C:\windows\Explorer.exe is version 6.00.2900.3156
(xpsp_sp2_gdr.070613-1234), dated 13 June 2007, 11:23:07 (UK local time). I
can kill (all) and relaunch explorer.exe which gives me functionality back
for a little while until it hangs again - the clock in notification area
stops when this happens.
I do connect both using remote desktop as well as local console sessions,
switching between the two. I read that there is a known problem with caching
the taskbar and desktop but as my desktop is working, that doesn't appear to
be the same problem.
Any advice is appreciated.
