Windows 7 Windows Video Clip Support has stopped responding

[kenny782]

This problem is really annoying me.
Everytime I open a folder with videos in it I get "Windows Video Clip Support has stopped responding" when generating the thumbnails for many of the files.

I had nero and the k-lite codec pack installed. I removed both and rebooted.
I searched my entire machine including hidden files for anything containing "Ahead" in the name and found nothing.

But I'm still getting the "Windows Video Clip Support has stopped responding"


From what I can tell the problem is limited to MPEG clips so far.

I'd appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Kenny

After weeks of trying I accidently found the answer. It was my Axis security client.
It's used to access some security cameras. I noticed that the poblem went away while the app was being updated.

Thanks,
