Hi!

    I also looked it up and Microsoft has had the issues for many years on 
there server.
    This is a recent error and apparently enabling RPC is needed. For your 
server is acting up.

    Do what this person did and see if it fixes it. 
    Also, firewall and such are a part of the problem, but go into the help 
menu and enabling RPC and see what can be done.

I can't seem to open any folder using Explorer in Windows 7 RC b7100, as it 
fails
with the above error. This happened after Explorer stopped picking up metadata 
on
files, and so I killed and restarted explorer using Task Manager. Files and 
folders
on my Desktop still show up, and files still open in their respective 
applications,
but folders won't show, as with the error. Happens with any local folder.
I can't find anything on Google. I haven't touched any Explorer settings, and 
I'm
not interested in an Explorer alternative. I can restart, but this has happened 
once
before, so I'm thinking it'll happen again after a restart. Anyone have any more
permanent ideas?

I had the same issue with w7 7260, i simply used windows help to search for RPC 
and
followed the instructions on enabling it. Worked like a charm.

Checking this error message on google, it seems many people with no screen 
reader, are having this same problem, but found no solution. I would do a 
system restore to a time before this problem started.

Subject: Window-Eyes and Windows Explorer

Hi Everyone,

Normally when Window-Eyes checks out, I know it's a Windows Explorer
problem, also, but this time, for the first time ever, Window-Eyes reads the
error message. Here it is:

explorer.exe: The Remote procedure call failled and did not execute.

No matter what I do, this is happening.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Thanksmuch.

Pat Ferguson
