I recently reformatted my computer. And whenever I right click on Internet Explorer 9 (No-addons), this error always appears:

MICROSOFT VISUAL C++ DEBUG LIBRARY
Debug Error
Program:/C:/Windows/ExplorerEXE
Module:/C:/Program Files (x86)/EgisTec/MyWinLocker 3/x64/mwl shell ext.dll
File:Run Time Check Failure #2-Stack around the variable 'sz Temp' was corrupted.
(Press retry to debug the application)

There are no programs installed because it is newly reformatted and my Windows is up to date. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Internet Explorer, reformatting my computer again, running a disk check, running commands such as sfc /scannow but still no luck.

My computer specs are:

  • Windows 7 64-bit
  • i3 processor
  • 4 GB RAM

Update MyWinLocker program or uninstall it. I have this issue with 1password.

Although you say you haven't installed anything, it looks like MyWinLocker from EgisTec has installed a shell extension that is crashing. This doesn't come standard with Windows, so if you didn't install it then it must be baked into the Windows 7 install media you're using.

If you uninstall it, whatever the problem is should go away and will confirm that is the culprit. Hopefully the vendor can provide a version that doesn't crash Explorer.exe.
