Explore button does not work

[Orione]

Xampp 1.7.1 on Windows Vista
I installed it in C:\xampp

Using CAMPP Control Panel Application i press "Explore" button.
Mouse changes to "busy" icon for less than 1 second but then nothing happens, while I would expect C:\xampp folder to open.

Is there any file I could check for error log?

I tried to reinstall the application 3 times, but nothing changed.

Make sure you are logged in to Vista as an Administrator or even better with a
Vista Secret 'Super' Administrative Account
and that you have also disabled UAC.

Try right clicking on the C:\xampp\xampp-control.exe file and from the presented context menu select to run as an administrator and then try again to access Explore after the XAMPP Control Panel has started.

You can check the Event Viewer for any error messages relating to this as it seems it may be a Windows permissions related issue.

After a night switched off my laptop decided I was right in trying to explore xampp directories.
Out of jokes, I resterted my laptop and everything now is ok.

I'm running as standard user, and had non problem in exploring xampp directories in previous installations (even of this same version).
After switch off yesterday night and switch on this morning everything works ok.

As error is no more present I will try this solution next time the problem comes up.

Thanks for the hint, I didn't think it could be a more general problem not straight related to xampp application.
