I was using PowerDesk for a while with no problem but now when I try to start it, it crashes. I get a message that states PDEXPLO caused an invalid page fault in module PDEXPLO.EXE. This began when I choose not to display the folder list. ( : VCOM Technical Support

This is a known problem in version 5.0.1.0 which has been fixed with the free update to version 5.0.1.2. The crash is caused because the Show Folder List setting was turned off under the View menu. If Show Folder List is left checked, PowerDesk will not crash.

To open PowerDesk again, Run PDEXPLO.EXE with the /e+ command line parameter.

From the Start Menu > Run line
Type C:\Progra~1\Ontrack\PowerDesk\pdexplo.exe /e+
Press enter
Then run EasyUpdate from the PowerDesk help menu
Alternately you can download the update to version 5.0.1.2 by running EasyUpdate from the Program Start Menu. Start Menu -> Programs -> PowerDesk Pro 5.0 -> Easy Update.
