Try this and see if it helps.
Open Explorer and select "Tools" from the menu bar (if menu bar is not present, tap the Alt key on your keyboard to bring it up).
From the Tools menu select Folder Options and then the View tab.
Check the first box "Always show icons, never thumbnails" under the "Files and Folders" section and Click OK.
Now browse to your problem folder and see if opening it still crashes explorer.
Keep us posted.
