Hey,my pc has been acting up and from time to time I have to restart explorer.exe.
The reason I do this is because whenever I hover my mouse over an icon on the taskbar it's continously lit up,it's extremely annoying since if it's lit up I don't know what's my cursor position for a second.(I'm using w8)
What I wanna do it's a program that closes and opens explorer.exe.
I don't have any advanced c++ knoweledge,please help :D.
Stop-Process -name explorer
Invoke-Item c:\windows\explorer.exe
You might run into a weird bug with powershell not wanting to launch certain executables. This link will help with that: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/832434
Also I did not need the Invoke-Item command on my computer, because explorer automatically restarted after being killed.
