WVD Issue -Explorer Constantly Crashing and Restarting
Mark Aldridge Hi Mark, I'm seeing the same issue occur every now and then. It's caused by the Windows Search service. If you restart this service the issue stops (you don't need to restart the host and you can restart the service with everyone else logged on).
I've had to created a scheduled task to restart this service at logon. Far from ideal though. I assume it's yet another bug in Win10 2004...
On top of a major bug in FSLogix (which breaks OneDrive Files on-Demand) I'm getting pretty fed up with Microsoft right now.
Hi Pieter - I still have this issue after multiple attempt to work with Windows Performance Tech Support. From this forum, it sounds like a major bug that aren't being addressed yet.
Tz_Blog it's hard to troubleshoot these issues over forum posts, it typically requires a memory dump of the app or sometimes the full OS before being able to point to the root cause. This thread has been around an issue that was fixed in November '20 - also the last time someone replied to it.
It's not unlikely the issue you are having is something completely else. Do you have a CSS case number I can look into?
Hi Pieter - Case # 2102180010003574. I am suspecting the FSLogix is what causing explorer.exe to crash but it's not definitive because this is a random issue. Microsoft performance team was not able to fine the root cause. For now, I disabled FSLogix via Registry entry because most people access our WVD environment to run certain applications.
Thank you,
