    Hi Saberk, explorer.exe is an essential feature of Windows 10 so you don't have to download it. In case you encountered an issue when tried to launch it, I recommend you the following steps:

    Open Start, type: CMD - right click CMD - press Run as administrator

    Type in the following lines and then click ‘Enter” after each of them:

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /CheckHealth

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /ScanHealth

    Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

    Then run the System File Checker utility:

    Open Start, type: CMD - right click CMD - press Run as administrator

    At the Command Prompt, type: sfc/scannow

    This will check if there are any integrity violations

    Restart your system

    Hi saberkhelifi

    Is your PC turning on, if so Explorer.exe is present as it is the main executable in Windows

    Do not download Explorer.exe from the Internet, all you will get is a version wrapped in malware.

    Can you please explain the exact problem you are having, that you need a copy of Explorer?

    What is the problem that caused you to want to run explorer.exe?  Can you open File Explorer/This PC?
