#VIDEO SERVER EXECUTION FAILED WINDOWS 10#
Recently, we came around an issue in Windows 10 which is supposed to occur if OS is launching folder windows as separate process. Hence, now if you restart Explorer windows, Desktop and Taskbar won’t be reloaded and they keep running. The new instances of File Explorer launched will have other brand-new explorer.exe processes. If this happens, Desktop and Taskbar will get isolated explorer.exe process separated from File Explorer‘s explorer.exe process. However, sometimes the third-party software you use on your Windows may change the above mentioned default behavior, and may allow the OS to launch folder windows as a separate process. Hence, when you press End Task button for this same process in Task Manager, you’ll find that Desktop and Taskbar is also restarted along with File Explorer.



This means if you open Desktop, Taskbar and few File Explorer windows, they all will be sharing a common process, named explorer.exe. By default, File Explorer in Windows operating systems (OSes) shares same explorer.exe process for all Explorer windows.
