Faulting application name: SearchIndexer.exe; Faulting module name: ExplorerPatcher.amd64.dll

Any ideas how to fix this:

All the permissions are checked/enabled except for special permissions for all 3 files in \ExplorerPatcher. category.
I've put Program Files in the Search Index excluded category.

Have you registered it as shell extension?

I believe I ran regsvr32 ExplorerPatcher.amd64.dll when I initially put 2 DLLs (ExplorerPatcher.amd64.dll and ExplorerPatcher.IA-32.dll) in "C:\Program Files\ExplorerPatcher". To be sure, I ran it again with the same result. This time I noticed a warning that may be meaningful.

This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool. From regedit: {6B3B8D23-FA8D-40B9-8DBD-B950333E2C52 = ShellServiceHost I then did the uninstall (regsvr32 /u ExplorerPatcher.amd64.dll), reboot, and search indexing appears to be working. I’ll do more experiments if you tell me what to do, but for the time being all is well.

Yeah, registering as shell extension is not required, as I said a fair couple of times by now, to use 99% of the features offered by EP. That' why it is not mentioned anywhere, it's only good for specific uses one should already know about and even then, it is still experimental and a work in progress pretty much.

Thanks
