DisplayLink Forum - View Single Post - Installing DisplayLink breaks Windows Explorer

From a clean system, I downloaded 5.5 from the support site and installed it successfully, then plugged in the Mimo. I cancelled the install from Windows update, at which point it appeared to pick up and configure the previously installed displaylink drivers. The Mimo screen works, but Windows Explorer is broken again. I ran the debug tool. I then did a system restore to before installing the DisplayLink drivers in order to recover Windows Explorer.

Note that Windows Explorer simply reports that it has stopped working, and then that it is restarting. I can't get it to give me a detailed error message, which it has done occasionally before.

Please let me know if you need anything further.

Thanks.

P.S. Having problems attaching the 36Mb file. Get an error message about missing security tokens. Any ideas? Tried thrice.
