I noticed that i can close explorer.exe and my computer still runs, there just isnt a program to handle the icons or to organize the open programs. Is there some kind of program that replaces this and maybe has more features, like a mac style or something? Just wondering because i know there is style XP which just changes how the PC looks. Thanks.

would try asking at a computer / operating forum.

we deal mostly in styles, graphics and just basics of everything that is for websites.

very little for the home pc, or home server.

Yes, there are several.

A search of "Windows shell replacement" will get you some of the more popular including Litestep and Aston.

I tried a few a while back, but they all felt lacking compared to explorer. The smaller memory footprint was nice, but not that much of a savings...and I can save it all by closing explorer and running programs from task manager.

They all install and remove fairly easily, though I would make sure everything is backed up first. You are playing with a critical part of Windows..better safe than sorry

I currently use Aston too. It looks well and uses less resources than classical shell

I think the best way to get rid of explorer.exe is not to use Windows.

But there is not a better option for an average user other than Windows.
