Faster way to restart explorer.exe

Sometimes while flying, a problem happens that restarting explorer.exe using Windows task manager will cure.

A faster way to restart explorer.exe (in case you have to do this from time to time).

 

Right click on desktop and create a .txt file

Copy and paste this exact 3 lines of text into the file:

 

taskkill /f /IM explorer.exe

start explorer.exe

exit

 

Now Save the file on your desktop.

Right click on it and rename it to EXPLORER.BAT (now it no longer is a .txt file, it is now a .bat file).

Save the file on your desktop and leave it there forever.

Every time from now on that you click it, explorer.exe program will close and then restart in 2 seconds.
