XPize: compatibility with Explorer.exe files   Type set to Issue: A bug   Impact set to Low: Changed to low with XPero's comment. Not many bugs have been reported on this, but will look out for them.~Explorer.exe shouldn't need to crash (I think) from XPize. Probably should be corrected to amend this bug in the coding; so solution proposed   Issue found at XPize.net --> • Explorer.exe: The files ntdll.dll and shlwapi.dll may cause explorer.exe crashes.

That bug appeared in first versions of XPize. Long time without any bug report of that type from users. Probably new versions of explorer.exe provided by MS Update fixed the bug.

I would set the impact to low, not because it is not a severe issue, but because it happens to very few people.

Update: Changed impact to low. Will wait to see if the Explorer.exe bug happens to reappear.

As XPero said, this only affects people who are foolish enough to install older versions of xpize on modern systems. Anolis itself has no issues with Explorer, so I'm closing this.
