2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack members of the community for any reason.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.

- These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't fork-bomb your computer.

No, but you've stated something that's factually not true. And with all the shit that's streamed on the internet, this is nothing near "weird".
Sorry that you don't know what you're talking about.
over 3 hours and 20 minutes now by the way... Explorer.exe hasn't restarted. What you claim has NEVER been the behavior.
Edit: I'm killing the stream. It's been over 4:20... I think the point is proven. Still no explorer.exe. Because when you kill the process, it does not restart.
I think pickles got confused from the fact that task manager (afaik) forces you to restart explorer if you try to kill it from there. If you
taskkill /f /imit to death, then it stays dead.I killed it from task manager though.
"End task"
Wacky, I remember the metro (windows 8 - 10) task manager forcing you to restart it.
Edit: Just checked the Windows 11 task manager, the Apps view's 'End Task' button turns into a 'Restart' button when Explorer is selected (but the context menu option to end it stays).
That I can believe... The "Restart" option is just a taskkill and re-run the process. But that's not "Explorer restarting itself", that's task manager restarting it for you under one specific, but probably the most common scenario.
