Windows Explorer error his application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information

Question

Every time I open Windows Explorer I get this message. A window opens called Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library and it says "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information." I click the OK button, it searches for a solution and then closes the program. Was there something in the recent update that messed this up? Please help!!!
