VIEWING FILE TYPES

I am using Inspiron 1520 with Windows XP.  When i select a windows folder then TOOLS/Folder Options/File Tyes an error message is displayed saying "Windows has encountered an error and has to close".  windows then freezes and i have to use ctrl+alt+del to end the running task,  I have searched google but cannot find any help.

Anyone else experience this?  If so is there an easy solution?
