When I right-click on a folder and click the "Search" option I got this error message. Also when I use the Quick Launch bar and click the "Show Desktop" It also show same error. "There was a problem sending the command to the program".
Does anyone here have the same problem as mine? Let me know if you found solution to this problem.
Error: “There was a problem sending the command to the program”
This error usually caused by a setting in Zone alarm .
-
Go to zone alarm settings , there allow the Windows Explorer to have access to the Internet.
-
But remember there is no need for windows explorer to behave as server though.
-
Now here in settings re-set the again set the Zone Alarm settings to restore defaults and then reconfigure the settings. All the customizations which are there in the zone alarm will be lost.
-
Now from the overview preferences tab and turn off the load zone alarm at start up( or any similar option).
-
Now what you need to do is to Restart windows in safe mode.
-
Open the folder named Internet logs (C:Windows/logs)
-
Remove everything from this folder and also you need to empty your recycle bin as well
-
Now you have to Restart windows in normal mode.
-
Now restart the application manually
This solution surely works and benefits you.
